The figured out it was her not her brother and made her a robot. I forgot the word they used for it tho.

Love the show. As a Army vet I really enjoy the brother and his buddies.

I like it so far. I like how they keep everything in their world very localized and rural even though it's obvious that the 2030's time they are living is more advanced.

I LOVE Chloe Moretz, and find her to be oddly attractive despite not having any outstanding physical traits. Just a normal girl next door type.

Will continue to watch.

Yes. You missed something. I won't spoil it. (for you or others).

But yes, you missed something.

It's nothing "major"... but I can see it being important later.

The robot that Flynne quantum tunnels into is called a Peripheral. The Russian fella asked Wilf to “make her a peripheral”

Bit of a fake out because we the viewers would likely think the headset used in 2030 is a “peripheral” but in this show it’s the robot body in the future

About an episode and a half in. I’m surprised this show hasn’t gotten more traction, it’s pretty fricking cool

I’m enjoying it so far. Most of the negative reviews I read were the typical bs about not adhering strictly to the book, but whatever.

Yeah, this is a very good show so far. I saw the basic concept of "time traveling with VR" and thought it might have an overly complicated plot, but 3 episodes in and they've been able to keep a pretty tight focus. Lots of action, mystery and drama (in a good way), while also exploring some cool near future tech.

I'd also say it has mainstream appeal too. My wife usually only tolerates the scifi shows I watch. She was disappointed she has to wait a week for the next episode.

I went from clicking a banner ad in Prime to finding what could be my favorite show on Prime!

I know absolutely nothing about this show and am enjoying the hell out of it!

Very well done!
