Yeah, weird show with weird humor. Not for everyone.

Its futuristic theme is lighter and funnier than the darker anthology series Black Mirror. Seemingly Weird City is supposed to a more consistent world than Black Mirror as well.

You dont know what to expect from each episode. It's a crazy show. It is disturbing in a colorful sci-fi way. No gore, just... weird situations and almost cartoon-like exaggerated characters. I guess it's supposed to be a dark kind of comedy that makes you feel awkward.

The only reason I watched it was because Dylan O'Brien was in it, and i couldn't make it to the 3rd episode. The 1st episode was weird and comforting but then the 2nd episode was weird and creepy. It was very disturbing (the 2nd ep.) I would say you should try and watch it but i don't recommend.

If you're expecting a gritty dark-future show in the realm of black mirror you'll probably be disappointed, but that's not to say this show doesn't have its own charm! The stories remind me of the campier Twilight Zone episodes or something along the lines of Futurama in an anthology space. It's fun, satirical, black humour thats well produced and has some good performances, though the set design and world is the real star; definitely worth the watch if you're okay with fun sci-fi.

This 'show' is just garbage. I watched all 6 episodes continuing to hope, fruitlessly, that it would get good at some point, but it just never does.

I get what they're going for, as others have stated, a sort of Black Mirror anthology thing, but it's a fail.

None of the characters (with the exception of the 2 women in the final episode-the tv show within a tv show) have any redeeming qualities, the stories are vapid and uninteresting (again with the exception being episode 6), and weird is nowhere near a strong enough word to describe this trash.

Unless you REALLY have nothing better to do (like watch paint dry on the walls), I strongly recommend not wasting your time on this.

Zero stars from me, even the few good actors couldn't save this mess

It's like the black mirror, but funny and interesting

I see that the producers had arranged cleverly the episode order in a certain way, starting with strong one carried by Dylan O'Brian and Ed O'Neill in hope the audience would continue watching the next several episodes. It is similar to Apple's "Amazing Stories" that started with Dylan O'Brian in the first episode before the whole serial fell apart with second episode that is too "SJW" and has ruined the mystique of "Amazing Stories".

Lot of reviewers have commented about the similarity between "Weird City" and "Black Mirror". I tend to agree, but "Weird City" has lot of pointless "comedy" that fall flat like the bad comedians who couldn't get the audience to laugh. I watched about ten minutes of second episode before skipping to the next episode and repeated the same thing to the subsequent episodes.

I gave the serial one star but had to add three more for the excellent Dylan O'Brian episode.

The episodes are interesting and definitely worth the watch. It is quite clear the ideas have been inspired by the Black Mirror series.

The episodes are good but more fantastical then hard hitting. I really enjoyed them but would pick Black Mirror over weird city any day. But I would recommend viewing Weird City, the acting is good, the ideas are interesting.

The first episode was a great one, 'The One', the rest are fun to watch.

I'm interested to see where they go with it.

The basic idea of Weird City - an anthology series taking place in a city divided between the haves and have nots - seems promising. But the first episode, involving a guy who goes to a dating agency that promises to find your perfect match, seemed about 20 minutes too long even though the whole series is a half hour. It would have been better had they intertwined a couple of stories, or wrote one that had more meat on it.

The series seems very well meant, dealing with themes of love and freedom and government overreach and the right to choose your own sexuality. It's just that it's not an especially interesting idea, it's not done particularly well, and after ten minutes it feels like its spinning its wheels.

I'm not sure why Jordan Peele is doing this, since my understanding is he's doing a reboot of Twilight Zone and why would you do two such similar series simultaneously? Also don't understand how the very talented Peele could do something so mediocre. Very puzzling.

Not going to watch another episode.

This serie has a great concept, like black mirror with comedy and weirdness. I really enjoyed the weirdness and binge watched it. Give it a chance!

It's far from being as bad as the current 5.something score would have you believe. It's Black Mirror, but weird, as the title suggest itself. It's basically a parody but it's not exactly in your face. In most of its comedic situations, it's as though you could completely be forgiven for thinking they were not trying to be funny.

I'm guessing this mostly the reason why it's getting such bad reception.

It's actually very much like Key&Peele's skits, except without the over-acting that sets the tone and basically spells out that these skits were supposed to be comedic.

This show feels like no one had their heart in it. Each episode hardly makes a point if it does at all and people are calling it a satire. The fact is that it is weird yet unremarkable. Neither the comedy nor the plot takes any risks at all and they seem to beat you in the face with the 'this is the society knob we turned up to 11!' to the point it is obnoxious at times and only adds to the shallow feel of the show.

A lot of good names are attached to this, so I think this goes to show that recognizable actors can't make gold out of a lump of coal.

I like to believe that Jordan Peele had nothing to do with this. Just watch some Key & Peele and you'll notice that someone on that show knew what makes something funny.

It almost feels like a film class had a homework assignment to write scripts for the show and they picked their favorite 6.

The production design was pretty good. The visuals were nice and the editing wasn't bad, although it didn't really add anything either.

High quality writing and excellent production values help Weird City separate itself from a crowded field.

No doubt this has been influenced by the somewhat repetitive Black Mirror, but its innate optimism and feel good vibe are an improvement on that show, which can be pretentiously handwringing at times.

Great costumes, colour palettes, music and plenty of laughs. A triumphant debut.

I went crazy to watch this series, tried so hard to download from various sites and after all that effort all I see is complete waste of time. I don't understand how did YouTube even agree for this stupid commercial looking series. It's utter waste of time and 2 hours of unnecessary incomplete drama. It's like a low budget film with Dylan O'Brien. They just added his name so that they can attract everybody to watch it, but once you see it you'll understand that he wasn't in it much at all! Just don't watch it, I wouldn't recommend you to waste your time like I did.

First 2 episodes were good then after that it just went to utter s**t like they give up

Being a fan of Black Mirror made it a little bit difficult to watch a sort of Comedy version of it. Nice TV show in general; good acting with great concept and glamorous visuals. Would definitely be waiting for a second season👍

I could not even get passed the first five minutes before turning it off. New, millennial garbage. How are these terrible writers getting shows and movies? Do not waste your time.

I just watched the first episode and was super surprised by what a high quality, quirky, sweet, original and fun episode it was. It really reminded me of Black Mirror. Great cast, script, plot, etc. Had no idea what to expect so was surprised and delighted by the premise. Laughed out loud and found myself feeling giddy by its freshness. Just what I needed.

Sometimes I feel they add Jordan Peele's name to something, just to bring the fans in. I refuse to believe that Jordan was completely involved in this, because its utter garbage. A wannabe anthology piece, that might as well be 90210 in the future, and you wouldn't know the difference. The episodes all start strong, and give you a good premise, but the last 10 minutes go completely off the rails. The writers just give up midway, and write themselves into the most cliched endings possible. Just because you add 'Black Mirror/Twilight Zone' based haunting themes to your end-credits, does not make your climax powerful. Even the cameos cant save this show from its overreaching desire, glaring plot holes and lazy writing. Don't bother.

No comparison to Black Mirror here. I love Black Mirror ...truly enjoy Black Mirror...and this in no way compares to Black Mirror! It wants to be like it...seems like many shows/movies are trying to capture that slightly futuristic twighlight zoney feel of BM but unfortunately, most that I've seen have missed the mark...and this show doesn't even come close. It's campy, poorly written, or maybe it's well written and poorly executed, I dunno. But its just plain bad. The stories at the end leave you feeling like you've truly wasted your time. You're supposed to be laughing but you'll find that you're not. No pay off at all for the 17 to 45 minutes you've invested in each story.

The visuals are amazing though...it's shot beautifully w vividly colorful, slightly futuristic backdrops and outfits. It's also chuck full of celebs you'll recognize, but they dont help the show like they in theory should. The only moment of full on laughter and irony involves Steven Yuen in a particular scene involving his final moments with a cantaloupe. Other than that and maybe 1 or 2 other moments, I was disappointed and bummed about that.

This is a Stupid show...nothing smart here. the fact that you can call a show comedy or satire doesn't mean it has to be devoid of all reason. whom ever wrote this nonsense had zero understanding of...well, everything. they don't understand technology or code or science, or sociology or human nature...absolutely nothing, so , it can be just stupid fun type of show... that it also is not, it makes no sense what so ever to the point that sometimes they actually seem to be encouraging things like bullying ans sexism. well, if you already have a YouTube premiere account, it costs you nothing (but time) to watch it, so be your own judge, if not the 1st 2 eps are free, so also you can watch it and see for yourself...my opinion though, it's awful, i gave it 1 for not even trying.

It is such a good watch! Or is it people dont really get the humour in this?

The first episode has a vaguely interesting premise, poorly executed and with little to no appeal, but after that it slips massively downhill into and unwatchable mess of wannabe black mirror/inside number 9 stories.

Try it out, but don't buy a youtube subscription, nothings lived up to what i hoped from it.

Unsubtle, poorly written and not the best acting.

Give it a miss, just another show jumping on the Black Mirror bandwagon.
