Just bing-watched this 10 episode series on Netflix and was very surprised at how much I enjoyed it.

The reviews were so-so, fifty-fifty, so I decided to watch the first episode and got hooked. Now, this sci-fi tale is not for everyone at all. If you are squeamish on gore and blood or against full frontal nudity, then it is not for you.
However, if you have a slightly-kinky sense of humor, like a plot that demands watching for details and very, very unexpected twists and enjoy a different style of acting where you sometimes wonder just who is who, then this is right down you alley as it was mine.
Plus, and guess you can say this is a guy thing but the women in it are so damn hot and sexy as hell!
Okay, my 2 cents for what it is worth. Flame or agree, it is now your dime.

I don’t even watch regular TV nor have an antennae anymore. Netflix has so many good shows available that paying the $12/month is a no-brainer. I just wish they had an annual plan. I would gladly drop a $100 or so a year just to keep it and not worrying about the monthly payment screwing up my rent check like it did back in November.

Travelers is a great Netflix show, too.

Does this series star the State Farm guy? If so, the promos looked pretty cool.

I think they should make a real horror show, a show that cloned Nancy Pelosi

I like blood and gore. I like (female) frontal nudity. How can it miss?

Did you enjoy the story or the porn?
To: Bender2
Did it last night.
It ends satisfactorily but leaves the door open for a Season 2.
Also, the premise leaves the door open for a changing cast.

An effective way to negotiate actor contracts :)

It might be a great show, but I don’t want to give Netflix any of my money.
