HUMANS

As a fan of the BBC/AMC series HUMANS and Westworld, it is interesting to make comparisons between the two on many levels. HUMANS has just begun its 3rd season. Just wondering if there’s anybody who is watching it and if J&A have mentioned it in their podcasts...

    Yes there are a few of us and I don’t believe either have watched it (it’s been asked). There used to be a thread for the show last year I think, but no one has started one for Season 3 yet.

    Lo and behold - Just catching up on the latest Westworld podcast 207-Les Escorrches - HUMANS is mentioned at 1:48:35 as a potentially good show for the depiction of AI.  What I am loving in HUMANS is the evolution of emotional intelligence in the green-eyed synths.  The awareness that they are becoming more emotionally invested and that is more 'human' - They embrace it.  Interestingly, actual humans do the opposite:  The reject their emotional selves. This is a topic I am interested in on due to the fact that I'm a psychotherapist.  And it can be a hazard when watching any program since I'll analyze a pizza pie.

    I just got caught up on the first 3 episodes of Humans and I'm liking it so far.  For whatever reason the 1st season really brought me into the show to an extent that the 2nd and 3rd hasn't to nearly the extent.  With that being said it's still an amazing show that I think is severely under the radar.  Clearly Westworld is going to be more popular because lets be real, it's HBO but this show is damn amazing in itself and it has next to nothing for advertisements or any kind of promo for the show.

    I always feel like the 2nd seasons of shows are a 'bridge' - I always feel like I'm a bit let down and 'lost' in the 2nd.  Could be that I tend to set the bar unrealistically high for new shows that I love.  The same happened for me with Humans.  The 3rd season is excellent IMO.  It is a shame that shows like Humans don't have any promo.  Same was same for The Expanse (so so awesome) and we almost lost it to cancellation because of it.

    Really enjoying S3 so much. It’s a breath of fresh air after the Rubik’s cube watch of Westworld.

    That was a joke in reference to Westworld.

    Sorry, there should be a tag next to my username that 90% of content is sarcastic wise ass but the other 10% is thoughtful, reasoned and possibly inspiring  o:)  >:)

    What a stunning finish to a great season! To me, the world in Humans just keep expanding, and the stakes keep getting higher. It started with one ordinary family in season 1 but at the end of this season you see the impact of conscious synths throughout the country (if not internationally), and how people and the government react to them. There are questions and mysteries to be answered, but never the one-note "is this guy/gal a robot?" I really think @A_Ron_Hubbard will enjoy this show because a bunch of the humans here are actively trying to learn, be more compassionate, and overcome their prejudice, even if they come up short sometimes. Side note: I freaking love the way Mia runs. It's a small touch but the mechanical awkwardness is absolutely on point.

    I have to agree with @Demic this show ended on a super high note. It’s a shame AMC has treated it like it has and relegated it to hardly any advertising and horrible time slots. If this is the end, so be it they ended it in a great way. I’d be dissapointed/sad if they didn’t continue as what they have opened would make for some really interesting TV. This last episode for me was a ole to hit multiple emotions as we have grown and gotten to know each character. Hopefully more people start watching.
