Trying not to binge, but the first episode (Common People) was amazing.

Its Cory Doctorow’s enshitification meets Repo Man’s Big Hospital. So fucking on-point and brilliant.

    I’m halfway through the season. It’s awesome so far. It feels like these episodes were always meant to be part of the series.

    The first one is a scary technological concept rooted in reality enough to be plausible. It’s not just about technology but about evil corporations.

    The second one is a scary concept that seems to be inspired by the Mandela effect (it even mentions the Mandela effect) but not really plausible, feels more like a supernatural episode. Kinda Twilight Zoney.

    The third one is another somewhat plausible scary technology concept. It is an exciting episode with twists and turns and romance. It also reminds me of holodeck malfunction episodes in Star Trek

      Just saw the third tonight. I usually hate romance, but damn that was good

      Guess I’m just a sucker for gay things
