I'll be very curious to see how the new show is connected to EMH without simply being the next season of EMH (aside from stylistic changes).

Galactus was even more waisted than Unicron's premature throw-away appearance in Prime. At least Prime bothered to half-heartedly try to make Unicron look like a creadible threat over three episodes.

Universally feared unstoppable world eaters deserve better than to have their arrival, a mega battle for the fate of the world, and their convenient maguffin defeat all within one 22 minute episode.

To be fair, Galactus' first appearance wasn't all that spectacular either - at least compared to modern depictions of cosmic entities/threats. He was in and out within 3 issues and the MacGuffin that would have defeated him wasn't even used - it only took the threat of use to get Galactus to leave.

So technically, EMH was still fairly true to his origin story. I would have loved for them to mention the Ultimate Nullifier as a nod to the comics and have Silver Surfer in the ep, but oh well. They probably didn't have enough time to properly set up Norin anyway.
