A mix of odd stories and fantasies that ultimately makes little sense.

Fucking weird and pointless.

Some mumbling hoodlums have shitty lives that get shittier.

I guess this is a fair character story, but I can't understand enough of what they're saying to really be enthralled by the acting or drama.

An unknown event gave alternate-past Victorian Londoners a random superpower, and their numbers became pronounced enough to attract the attention of worried politicians. Or something.

Really interesting! I guess it's worth watching, but it slide sideways and got too strange to follow. It really needed more seasons to figure it's shit out, but the woke brigade MeToo-dogpiled Joss Whedon without evidence so he got shunned.

  • Abandoned - Drama

A boy that's beaten up a lot decides that murder is both the best revenge and career. Wait, it's about the man though. Well there's narration so don't worry he's never in any danger.

Kinda funny and kinda interesting sometimes, but god damn does it drag on; it could have been done much better, and done better quite easily too.

Somehow people are outfitted with total full-realism augmented reality as a way of putting cameras everywhere and somehow everyone is surprised when they are somehow hacked.
