Hold on, won't be long
Really loving this show. It's like if Office Space and Westworld were put into a blender. So much interesting philosophical stuff going on with identity, consent, morality of work. Interested to see where they take it to. The world they've created is both hilarious and frightening, I had a 6 month stint in the corporate environment before I couldn't take it any more and this show is definitely giving me major anxiety-inducing flashbacks.

drat that was tense. GIVE ME MORE! The ending was definitely cliffhangery but I think the finale did a good job of giving the main protagonist Mark a satisfying character arc throughout the whole season. He says in episode 8 that he hopes he finds out that there are things he cares about for real on the outside, and it's revealed that his whole existence is so he can give at least some part of himself relief from the despair of losing his wife, giving his being meaning and purpose.

I would've like more scene time with Innie Mark and his sister/Ricken, and there definitely needed to be a scene with Irving and Burt. Irving's plot felt lacking compared to the other two and another scene with Burt would've helped greatly.

This show should definitely win some Emmy's and I expect it to blow up next season.
