Classic bait and switch. I know what you're thinking a TV show about 8 people who share the same mind. First scene is an intense dramatic suicide. You're instantly hooked. However as the episodes progress (slowly) you realize the series is less about a mysterious organization and an assassin who hunts the 8 and instead the show is about lonely people who need love and were misunderstood by their parents. Then its all gay sex, tranny sex, gay sex and more tranny sex. Forget about moving the story forward and having the remaining 8 connect thru their mind. Its more gay sex or full nude male. What straight male or female wants to see an orgy with 4 men and 2 women? In what world is that hot? I'm at ep9. The Indian storyline while filled with good actors goes nowhere until ep8. It feels like a separate TV rom com. The Mexican actor is by far the most entertaining actor but the constant gay sex is distracting. The Asian women storyline is typical as can be but I like how she connects with the other main characters. African dude while typical has great heart (of course) and he too connects with the others. Include the Chicago cop into the group of likable characters. The Indian girl, the DJ and the tranny shouldve been better developed. By the time you get to ep9 it feels as though the main driving force of the series revolves around the tranny which makes since considering Lana Wochowski the creator of the show is one too.

We need less of the parent troubles, gay scenes, tranny emotional outbursts, Indian marriage problems and more sci fi and conspiracy. The sense8 should have more skills. If it wasn't for the Asian lady of course there wouldn't be any martial arts LOL. The cop, the hacker and the martial artists are the only three with any skills necessary to fight the mysterious organizations.

The TV series which has potential went from must watch for me to I'll finish some other time. If you decide to watch prepare for sappy gay and tranny love. Even with that stuff it seems odd that the love and being loved angle for majority of the characters would still be the focus of the series at ep.8. Thats around the time the organization starts to appear to more than one character.
