I know writers like to revisit ideas and concepts in their writing, often offering variations on a theme in their stories. But there was a little too much Total Recall in Real Life.

Good episode though. One of the best yet.

Yes Jitendar, agree with all you said.

A well acted, very Americanised dark story of which world is the real one. (Suppose they will sell this series to the Yanks, so a few stories like this, helps the sell).

Special effects in the future world, was as good as a major film, like Blade runner, definitely a bit step up on the SFX budget, compared to some of the previous stories.

Always late to the party me.
Episode 1
No problem with the acting but the production was far too derivative of Blade Runner even down to the ending.
Thought provoking though (pun intended)

'Human is'....a very interesting story set on one of mankinds outpost planets in the furthest reaches of the Galaxy, and having to attack other planets for resorce's.

SFX was not bad, but did cheapen it by using 'cheap to make' dark sets in many places, a few flashing lights, etc, does not make a futuristic set. 

Story was real good, but had worked out the ending very easily, and so should have the security on mankinds outpost.

SPOILER:
Two shape shifters go into the spacecraft during the battle after the two humans,  and two humans walk out back at the outpost, and one is found to be a shape shifter so the other should logically have been the same. Security take note, but they did not.

I guess they've not shown the last four yet, as I just have six recorded. Seen the first three now, quite liked the first two, not sure I enjoyed The Commuter that much though.

So apparently the rest of these episodes were shown at the end of February. Anyone see them?

That's the problem with multichannel TV. I can't be tuned into a C4 channel 24-7 waiting for an ident offering a new broadcast date for a show that's been hiatused into amnesia.

I hate broadcast TV now. I can't keep up with any of it. Was a Gotham fan when it was on C5, they showed seasons 1 & 2. Gave up on it on Season 3. No one showed that at all. Then E4 gets Gotham Season 4, and a couple weeks before the airdate, Netflix finally streams season 3 to the UK, for a price of course. You think I'm watching Gotham now?
