    Summary

    Reviewers say 'The Feed' delves into technology dependency and social media influence via a brain implant, earning praise for its intriguing premise and philosophical narrative. However, it faces criticism for slow pacing, underdeveloped characters, and inconsistent plot development. Comparisons to 'Black Mirror' and subpar acting are noted, alongside unengaging dialogue. Despite these issues, the show's visual effects, diverse cast, and thematic depth are appreciated. Debates over its originality and execution persist, with mixed calls for a second season.

    Wanted to love it, but it never gets there

    The Feed turned out to be a series that was meh, okay... but it definitely had potential to be so much more and go so much deeper but it just never gets there and there are so many times where I think bad choices were made, where characters were not developed, were inconsistent, the last half of the episodes definitely trudge on and very little happens and the pacing is very poor... it's sloppy, and it jumps around so much as to be erratic and weak... I'd give it a 6/10

    How could you mess this up?

    Any story set where all humans are wired to the internet is an easy story to sell. But The Feed is episode after episode of our confused protagonist figuring out just about nothing, and the other characters in and out of bed for hours on end. One of the most boring shows I've seen in a long time.

    Pretty good. Interesting.

    People who say the acting is bad are dead wrong. I guess they just don't like the show in general. But the performances are great. The story is just a long episode of "Black Mirror". But that's not really a bad thing at all. I love "Black Mirror". And, truthfully, some of the episodes of that aren't that great at all. I will continue watching this as I will "Black Mirror". Give it a try. It really is interesting. So far I am on episode 3 going to 4.

    Great idea, poorly executed

    The idea of this storytelling is awesome. It's a great story line and the acting is good. However, it's extremely difficult to follow. It seems to skip and jump in strange ways. It's excruciatingly linear and then jumps to another side plot which never quite gets more than introduced. Maybe I've not watched it closely enough? It's just too confusing.

    A really good show!

    I am a big fan of Black Mirror series, therefore I decided to watch the Feed and I really liked it! The plot could use a couple of tweaks at times, but the general idea was brilliant and creepy-probable. I am really surprised by negative comments on acting. Of course, we all have a right to have our own opinions, but in this case generalizing is really unfair towards some actors. It's true that some characters were annoying, e.g. Kate, but others were spot on! David Thewlis as Lawrence was AMAZING!!! I recommend this show to anyone who likes sci-fi series. It's worth the time-investment.
