I watched about 30 seconds of this despite your description of this show as "an awful piece of poo poo," and I'd just like to say that description was spot-on!

It was an hourlong sci fi animated adult drama that didn't have tits or swears or anything edgy. It was kind of like Severance meets Ghost In The Shell, but then it takes that concept and runs with it.

Too late now, watch it or don't, nobody cares, but you hosed up not watching it yet and not telling your friends to go watch it on AMC Plus. You also hosed up by missing that they somehow uploaded a brand new TV show in the wrong order so the finale kind of made no sense unless you were pirating it.

It's a show about the Singularity only being possible when the AI is a real consciousness. It's a fun mix of tech future realism and humanistic mysticism.

Lots of great stuff, like Aaron Eckhart doing his best Richard Jenkins impression. Ghost in the Shell purple haired anime girls, Sullen Teen Who Will Save The World, hackneyed pop covers, and so on.

Basically, now is the time to watch this show so you can pretend like you actually watched it when it was on when it gets Arrested Developmented in the next bit.


heres a good scene. abusive parents and math! goons should love this poo poo

good reference. that show was a solid 5/10. Maybe like 3-6 depending on the ep. This show is a whole story rather than episodic and probably an 8.5 at least, maybe 9.



I can't wait for goons to watch it and be like 'ok maybe costco meatballs was right' and then get to the IRL MMO stuff and instantly turn on me. Turn on me further, that is. You guys are frickin mean! Even like in the chili thread I'm catchin strays now. Jeez.

It was really good and I got some friends to watch it and they liked it too but I partially sold them on it by saying season 2 was in the can already and now I look like a real shithead and they're probably gonna throw garbage at me

Maybe it'll get picked up by someone

I liked it more than devs because it wasn't as high on its own farts

The slow start and how they didn't advertise it at all and literally put episodes up in the wrong order was maybe a bad move?

Also that it was on AMC+

But yeah it was good and I'm mad and sad now.

It and Severance and Devs are all kind of in the same genre but yes agreed this is the only one that sort of wears its heart on its sleeve in a doofy old school cyberpunk way, the other two are some prestige TV BS even if I do quite like them all things considered.

This show has maybe the most 'plausible' explanation of consciousness transfer of any recent media (a per-molecule laser scan that in real time recreates a brain within an emulated physiological model as it's being copied/destroyed ), and it has has characters, just like in all of this kind of media acting like their loved ones are really back with them. But unlike Devs this doesn't just ask the question.. it shows us in the first episode, no you loving die. It's a copy. The interesting question is what happens when that copy dies.

I suggest you read books by Ken Liu op because it appears he wrote the episodes and he is a good author and if it helps you can picture the characters as anime girls or whatever.

So what makes it adult? Is it, what, trying to be all philosophical and highbrow and hard science? Seems pretty niche. Making it a cartoon might not be the best move, but-

*Youtube recommends a fight scene from it with some guy flying around a videogame tower swinging a naginata*

So it's, what, not sure what audience it's even aiming for?
