Daily Countdown: TV Show #81

#81

Murderbot

I had heard some positive things about this Apple TV + show, but it turned out to be one of my favorite new shows of this year.

Murderbot is a futuristic sci-fi show where a personal security unit robot winds up getting a mind of his own and that mind has some potential violent tendencies.

Sec Unit was played by Alexander Skarsgård and he goes rogue. He is assigned to a team of researchers who were on a dangerous mission to another planet. Sec Unit does the voice over for the show and he is both fascinated and repulsed by the humans and their decisions.

Sec Unit is obsessed with an in-universe TV show called The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon. As viewers, we see some of the scenes of this show making it quite meta.

I did not expect to love this show as much as I did, but it was gripping, extremely funny and full of great action.
