Show makes you think about the impact of relationships, outcomes, consequences, and decisions. I thoroughly enjoyed the show considering the inter-galactic, political implications while still managing to make it connect on a human level. I wish they further explored the financial impact on the world these scenarios would bring. The score and the music choices are fitting and wonderful. The sorry progression evolves aggressively leaving the viewer wondering which path and which motive each faction has to achieve what they consider, "success". Plenty of questions still left unanswered. Overall, I can't wait to watch more and I will now be reading the books. Awesome.

This is the first time I've written a review for a series or movie here, even though I've been using IMDB for over 20 years. Even if "3 Body Problem" wasn't necessarily as thrilling as "Game of Thrones" or "Breaking Bad" in the first season, I have to tell you: It grabbed me! And: I want to know what happens next, how it will be realized on film. I know the audiobook even though it's been a few years since I listened to it and I've already forgotten a lot of things, but I'm really excited to see how it will continue in the coming seasons. So please Netflix: plan seasons 2 and 3 and 4 etc. And please broadcast them quickly :) I like 3 Body Problem!!!

The mission to send Will's probe into space is actioned, and Saul is offered a huge responsibility.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but boy was this a disappointing end to the series, I know it is what it is, but this lacked tension, lacked excitement, after so much promise and build up, it just limped over the finish line.

I quite liked the ambiguity of it, it's so complex and layered, that it was never going to be all nicely tied up like some whodunnit, it was always going to be a mystery unanswered, but they didn't answer anything at all, this felt like a middle episode, not a finale.

I'll try and explain my disappointment, compared to much of what I've seen in recent times, it was very good, compared to mid series episodes, it just wasn't in the same league, it felt like they took their eye off the game just for a moment.

Still no news of a second series, I hope there is a second series, because this deserves a quality conclusion, please don't let this excellent series end with this.

Good, but should have been great.

6/10.

Considering it's no guarantee whether Netflix will renew this series for a second season, I was kinda hoping for a better finale than this.

Auggie's storyline is bewildering, and humanity's future continues to remain bleak. However, it is abundantly clear that the hope stemming from humanity's "non-zero" chance of survival has resulted in impressive technological accomplishments in only a short timespan, meriting the fears the Santi have for humanity, despite the massive technological gap between the two intelligent species.

While I did not mind many questions being left unanswered (this is after all science fiction), I do wished the writers relied a little less on "our lord works in mysterious ways" for the inconsistencies of the scope of the Santi's abilities.

Overall, while I would not consider this to be the best sci-fi series I've seen, it still is miles ahead of the countless other mediocre Netflix shows that are still in production, and I hope we get to see a second season.

The unfortunate last episode of a series that started with a bang and ended with a whimper. From mega cool video games, dehydrated bodies going back to life with a jump in the pool, and morally ambiguous Chinese scientists to a bunch of lovelorn ethnically correct failures.

The San-Ti are omnipotent and yet they send a pathetic white male sniper to kill Saul. Clearly, the guy was going to fail, because the show established that all white males are disposable, inept, or just plain bad. So why not send infallible Tatiana? She's a girl, she can do anything better. Or use the female Sophone, she is a supergirl and can kill people in various sophisticated ways. But no... they try with a stupid car accident and a sniper, kind of primitive and bound to fail.

The "Let's save Saul" plot took almost the whole episode, compounded by the trite clichè of the "reluctant hero". They give Saul a job he doesn't want and refuses, even if everybody knows he will end up doing it. Mega waste of time.

Will's brain is lost in space (or is it?) causing deep sorrow to Jin, who after having ignored him for all her life was now hoping for a resurrection.

Given that the target audience for this is young males (most SF fans are males, anyway) there is also a useless scene with nano-girl boss Auggie standing on her moral high ground and pouting about giving clean water to the poor in South America. Thumbs up Auggie!

I enjoyed only the final scene, with Clarence my favorite character, but I still wonder why the San-Ti didn't plan a better operation to wipe out everybody from planet Earth. Not that I would help them, but watching a show like this makes me feel hopeless about the future of the human race.
