Cassandra

Overall the plot was fairly interesting and unpredictable, at least as much as this idea of out of control AI house can get. It's basically two sub plots that intersect, and the real plot is the Cassandra's back story.

My main issue was how much I had to suspend disbelief. The 70's vibe is cool but just don't make sense. I'm not sure why this couldn't take place further in the future. I also think the power of the AI was unrealistic in that the humans should have easily been able to overcome it. Basically most of the characters are just really dumb and you need to buy into that for it to work. Technology aside, you know the situation that is unfolding would never happen in real life and that inner voice is telling you that the whole time.

We thought this was brilliant. Yes you can pick holes in it if you want to but you can do that with everything and it's just really not necessary. It's a good storyline with plenty of detail, twists and the acting is good. The story really ties together the further you get and we found ourselves grippped on what was going to happen next, looking forward to another episode every night. We went in with low expectations because of the bad reviews and absolutely loved it. Theres not really much else to say but I'm writing to fill the word count... I don't want to add spoilers. Give it a go and I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed!

The show starts out quite tropey and leads one to believe it'll be like many of the other AI film/show flops. Initially it felt like it could have been a movie instead of a limited series but the plot does diverge from the usual "AI turns evil due to a technology issue". Since there's more of a backstory to how this "technology" came to be, it makes the overall show much more watchable and adds the missing human element that many others fail to deliver. The plot holes are tired tropes are still there but there's enough meat on the bone to keep you interested to see how it ends. Recall the Black Mirror episode "Black Museum" as the basis for whether or not you think you'll like the show. Black Mirror was still better but you get an idea of what this is gonna be.

It's not a show I'll be telling everyone about, but it's a fine show to watch when you can't find anything else.

I was skeptical at first... Another AI robot vs the hose, family, husband... whatever.. Not a M3GAN, SUBSERVIENCE or T1M.. Not quite on a Black Mirror level, but more Jetsons meets The Hand That Rocks the Cradle... meets Frankenstein.. I like the 70's appeal, decor and style, at first it didn't make sense, based in a iPhone era time.. but it comes together well.. kind of keeps you guessing.

But it actually has an engaging storyline... And the acting is good.. Dubbed sound and speech is good.. Definitely worth a multi-day binge.. but the episodes run together smooth and easy to keep the next one playing..

I find the storytelling smart, two timelines, one being the origin and one being the present. Even though usually AI robots turning evil is predictable and whatever, but I find the backstory and motivation of this particular one unique. It's not exactly as predicted and even the last episode reveals information that were forgotten/unexpected, and that deserved a written review from me.

I find this tv series underrated. I saw the trailer on instagram and thought nothing big of it, but as I let it play beside cooking, I learned to appreciate the details in the story and found it intrieguing.

Definitely worth a watch, as it is not even long. It's different from other AI robotic thrillers.
