The first season was interesting. More of a hard boiled detective story with sci-fi trappings. | |||

I think Anthony Mackie will do a good job. | |||

EXCELLENT! Thanks for the heads up! I had kinda forgotten about that show. I enjoyed season 1, so I guess I'm gonna have to binge watch it to remember WTH happened... "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I loved the concept, so different than the usual sci-fi stuff out there. A bit Bladerunner-ish too which is a plus in my book. | |||

I thought season 1 was great, but the ending felt so rushed and cobbled together. I'd have to watch it again probably. “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.”—H.L. Mencken | |||

I agree with the Blade Runner comparison. A little to brutal for my tastes. I found them switching from language to language really annoying, but solved that problem by turning on the closed caption. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

It's got a little Doctor Who going too in that the bodies change but it's still the same person inside. | |||

Aww Netflix! A month before my birthday and you got me my gift!

I wanted to like the show and gave Season 1 a fair shot but bailed after a few episodes. So I'll take a pass. | |||

I really liked season 1. So going to likely binge season 2 if I have time. Train how you intend to Fight Remember - Training is not sparring. Sparring is not fighting. Fighting is not combat. | |||

Thanks. I like good sci-fi. While I wouldn't put Altered Carbon up there with the best of them, it was good enough to watch the entire first season. I'll sit down and check out season 2.

Read the book if you want cobbled together, I thought the TV show did a better job with the schizophrenic story lines. They did have the benefit of hindsight vs the book. Full disclosure, I watched before reading. If I had read before, I probably wouldn't have watched. | |||

I gotta say.....not as good as Season 1. Not bad, but not as good. _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||

Blade Runner meets John Wick. You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless. NRA Benefactor/Patriot Member | |||

| Go ahead punk, make my day |
I enjoyed both Seasons, but the pace of Season 1 (with 10 episodes) was a bit better. | |||
