    I thought it looked amazing. Would like to know why the America are savage countries now and Great Bratain or maybe Europe as well are so advanced and modern. It looked great but would like some backstory on why the world is the way it is.

    Well that took a turn for the worse. Much better episode than episode one and some of it is starting to make sense but some still not.

    It's no Westworld but ticking along ok, can be hit and miss so far

    Just finished this today. Beyond the main and obvious plot, I found the whole thing incredibly disjointed, wasn't sure who I should root for (didn't care for anyone really) and the whole thing just played out in a very simple manner. I realise that the drugged out nature was part of the plot, but I felt like almost everyone was sleepwalking through their parts and I just didn't care what happened to them.

    Set up for a second season I guess, but wouldn't really feel the need to return to it.

    Is the book any better?

    +1 here for not recognising Demi when she popped up. Even her trademark raspy voice seemed to be missing. She was the only character who really stood out on the show for me.

    A pity that. It had potential. A lot more than that rubbish "The Third Day" crap show. Just typical. Maybe Netfliks or Apple will pick it up or Amazon someone please.

    I feel like they took the book and built on it. Worth a read


    I think a few watchers above missed some points of the show.
    Don't mind it being cancelled - I was happy with the conclusion it reached and not dying for more
