I’m a few episodes into The Periphery and totally hooked. I love the balance they’ve managed to strike between changed / unchanged in the near future. Curious to read the novel. Thank you for the other recommendations.
Severance is a stand-out show and I can't wait to see season 2 next year. This show blends the right amount of commentary and weirdness that I love. Ben Stiller is a scifi genius. Who'da thunk?
I do think I caught a few episodes of the 100, but I'm not 100% sure. I really do recommend Raised by Wolves! There's storytelling, good effects, and it's a pretty slow burn, but somehow never too slow. There's creepiness that you find in Ridley Scott creations, too. Cleverness in the meaning, etc.
I definitely think I'm going to start it this weekend. I've been putting it off too long, just like the million other things that I need to watch or read.
If I live to be a hundred I will never forgive Prime for dropping the Peripheral, ever!
I thought maybe Bezos would pull an Expanse on this one, but alas, no dice.
It had huge potential and viewers loved it. I think that the underlying plot of the Klept inheriting the future was a bit too close to home...
It hurts! Makes me think of Snow Crash a bit, too.
Agreed. Another wasted opportunity

Yes!

Agree completely. This one got me and I wasn't ready for it.
I really need to see raised by wolves, I've been so interested for so long and it has one of my favorite actors, Travis Fimmel
Have you ever seen The 100? It is a pretty decent sci-fi show, but it's more YA. Still has a cool plot, and mostly good acting.

Same! But definitely: keep me posted.
Yes! Glad you enjoyed it and went back to finish. I have heard there's no plan for a season 2, which is borderline criminal.
I was not prepared for this show when I started watching it.
Did you ever watch Devs? That show sort of did that for me, too.
