I usually go for thrillers but want a bit more dystopia. Especially as dh and dc will be watching the football for the foreseeable future.

Seen Snowpiercer recommended so will try that. Anything else please?

Another vote for Humans. I keep hoping they'll do another season.

Utopia the English version on prime. Scarily accurate to the pandemic years before it happened. Its incredible

Rollergirl11 · 11/06/2021 22:08

Utopia (the UK one) is one of my favourite series of all time. But is it dystopian though?

minou123 · 11/06/2021 22:27

Sweet Tooth Netflix - just this min finished binge watching and its brilliant. Without giving any spoilers.....the story is: there has been a pandemic, lots of people died, but at the same time children are born as a hybrid of human/animal.

The Purge Amazon Prime - there are films and a TV series. But the premise is for 1 day a year, all crime is legal, including murder. Bit gory, but excellent theme. Would you murder someone if it was legal?

Ok don't both with Awake - interesting premise but badly executed! Seemed like there were whole chunks missing & skipped over major plot points!
