There is nothing on netflix that I would even want to watch and they canceled both the dark crystal and 1899. Also altered carbon was a disaster and black mirror is not what it used to be. Maybe 3 body problem will be the single good scifi series they made since the dark, maybe not.

altered carbon was a disaster

Personally, I loved it. I just wish they'd make a second season.

I might be confusing with another show, but I thought they did make a second season, but not a third?

They had a major lead actor change between the two seasons, if it's the right show that I'm thinking about.

I was being a bit sarcastic, because season 1 was fantastic, but season 2 was (IMHO) absolutely terrible. I couldn't finish it.

Fair enough. I got through the second season, and I found it okay, but yeah definitely not as good as the first.

If I remember right, the first season was good, and the second season was... not. Think that's the joke.

Ah okay, I missed that it was a snarky opinion joke type of comment.

I just started the series and while I like it I don't see how it will make for good TV due to it's heavily philosophical nature. At least not without drastic change to the source material.

The Chinese version pretty much stuck to the novel word for word and looks pretty decent except for the low budget and average acting. Still better than watching the minecraft version.

I was so confused when I saw the most recent Black Mirror season. Joan is Awful was really good (and tech related), but then there was a bunch of so-so Twilight Zone wannabe episodes with little to nothing to do with technology.
