Upload

Season 1: 8/10 Season 2: 7/10 Season 3: 5/10 Season 4: 2/10

This TV show started good, it was a cleverly written science-fiction romantic comedy with endearing characters.

But at around season 3, the quality of the writing when downhill fast, and in season 4 all we have is teenage-level humour and a boring plot. They only did a half season for the last one, probably trying to cut their losses. Watch the first 2 seasons then save yourself the trouble.

First season was interesting, nice ideas, refreshing comedy based around IT and gaming, a developing detective story and sweet love. Second season has lost it all, rehashed ideas, repeated jokes and cliched sitcom humour, the detective story has largely disappeared and the love story has devolved into teen level childish angst / romance. The second series is dull, bland and simplistic, a waste of an idea and solid foundation thrown away by inept and clumsy writing.

Watch season one and leave it there.

I loved this show, it was new light fun, original and wacky at times. I loved the chrmistry between the different actors.

Season 2 went heavier, but was still enjoyable and still had substance. It wasn't on the level of season 1, but was still happy season 3 launched.

Well.. until I started watching, I could live with episode one, even though it could have very well been an entirely different show I was watching.. but in episode two it has gotten so ridiculous, and not in a good way. It's so lame, I'm opting out after this episode. Such a shame, what happened here? How van you ruin such a great concept and go in such a different direction. The humor in season 3 is just awful.

7 episodes this time? Seriously? I realize this is a 1st World Problem but either make the episodes 45 minutes to an hour long or give us more of them.

Ok, rant over. Now, onto the nice things. I love Upload. There's so much to see here. The mystery. The comedy. The romance. The feuding. The drama. Please give us another season sooner rather than later.

I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed Upload. It takes place in a futuristic world where people can upload their consciousness into a virtual world after they die. It's about a man named Nathan Brown (Robert Amell) who uploads his consciousness after his death (or murder?). It then shows how he has to get used to his new life in this virtual world where the more money you have the more you can have what ever you want. It's such a fun and creative show with plenty of laughs. It also smartly points out how flawed our species is and what we think is important. The episodes are only around a half hour long so you can binge through the 17 episodes so far pretty quickly.
