Holy crap.

This is so much more appealing than Ridley Scott going back to Blade Runner. His subsequent cuts of the original film rob it of his message and emotional heft.

 

[David H.]

Eh... i liked Blade Runner more than the book but I won't argue against this and 2049!

I'm shocked no one is talking about this. I'm two episodes in and LOVING it. If you love Philip K. Dick and you're a Black Mirror fan, I think you'll dig this show. Plus, this one has some big name talent like Bryan Cranston, Terrance Howard, Anna Paquin, Steve Buscemi, etc.

 

[Fincher]

I do want to see it, but as with most TV, it's DVD rental for me.

 

[Silvermoth]

Oh cool I didn't know this was a thing. I love dick

 

[Deck Rickard]

We all need a little Dick in our lives.

Gonna catch up on the rest of the season. Like I said elsewhere, I've enjoyed this more than the latest season of Black Mirror.

What are everyone’s favorite episodes? I think mine are “The Hood Maker”, “Safe and Sound” and “Autofac”. Only one I haven’t liked is the Buscemi one.
