TV Devs

[Mook]

i think this is the first FX show that will ONLY be on Hulu (iirc, FX is moving its entire catalog over to Hulu vs having it on its own streaming app, so this makes sense).

'Devs' Review: Alex Garland's Melancholy Sci-Fi Series Will Blow Your Mind (and Might Trigger an Existential Crisis or Two)

Devs is a weird, original, and somewhat impenetrable sci-fi series from writer-director Alex Garland.

But what does it all mean? Devs‘ deliberate pacing, melancholy tone (I don’t think there’s a single moment of levity in any of the eight total episodes), and unapologetically cryptic storytelling is bound to throw casual viewers off, and heaven help anyone trying to live-tweet through this beast. You need to study Devs – every frame might be giving you an answer. Or it might not. Part of the fun of this show is getting wrapped-up in its mind-blowing originality. For better or worse, Devs is a show that stands almost entirely on its own. At one point, a character here describes something as “transcendentally weird”, and that’s perhaps the perfect summation of Devs.

Anyone watch?

 

[IDAFC21]

Shit. Didnt know it was out.

So, just watched the first 2 episodes that are available. .....I don't know wtf is going on. But I'm on board. The visuals alone in this show are amazing.

 

[IDAFC21]

Just watched episode 3. This show is definitely a slow burn...no pun intended... but they give you just enough to keep you going.

 

[IDAFC21]

Am I the only one watching this? I've really been enjoying it.

 

[IDAFC21]

Guess that answers my question. Just finished ep 7. This show is a trip. Season finale is this week.

 

[Mook]

I keep meaning to.

 

[Mook]

But hey, at least you know how I feel with Money Heist.

 

[IDAFC21]

I guess there is that

I really enjoy the show but holy fuck the music is brutal. I know it's supposed to be but damn.

 

[IDAFC21]

Most of the music is pretty good, but yeah...it does have those...out there moments. Like REALLY out there. But I get it.

Finally watched the finale. I think I need Neil deGrasse Tyson to explain this show to me. But at least one thing I predicted would have to happen, happened, so I didn't feel completely dumb.
