Summary

We spin up Netflix’s Altered Carbon after we’ve decanted it for a few weeks, to see what we make of it in our final analysis. Cool concepts, excellent design, and decent sci-fi action are slightly undercut by sometimes silly and hammy execution, and a failure to take ideas to their logical conclusion. Still, we’re always down to ponder futurism and human singularities, so we dig it. It will be interesting to see if and how they decide to proceed with future seasons!

There's still, there are some problems with that series that I don't know that they ever resolve like that I

0:54.3

was kind of giving the benefit of the doubt and hoping they'd go a little bit

0:57.5

further with them or maybe things would sort themselves out in later episodes and

1:01.1

they just didn't and it's it's sort of messy like I I don't
