I like the US Version of humans much more. Sadly it's canceled. Better than us is not bad but very slow.

This is definitely similar to HUMANS. However, I believe I liked this one just a little bit more. Unlike HUMANS, there is only one seemingly self-aware bot in existence - season 2 may very well change that. It was interesting to see Arisa (the bot in question) become more self-aware and learn and learn and learn. She doesn't always have the best role-models to learn from, but despite that, she seems to learn the right/better choices to make. By the end of the season, I found myself really caring about what she was going through. One fun thing - if you stick around for the credits on episode 16 season 1, there are a couple of minutes of outtakes/bloopers which are fun. How I rate: 1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time 4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this 7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too 9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!

Warning! This will destroy your brain!
Seriously, this is one of THE worst shows I've ever watched period. I love foreign stuff and I realize the netflix voice overs can some times miss the mark and ruin the subtlety of the actors. But this is absolute garbage. Even listened in original More

The show gets dragged down by it's long run (16 episodes) and longwinded plot. What starts off as a promising look into a possible future quickly runs into a series of tropes we have seen many times before, followed by a long stretch of handoffs and scenes that in American shows would have been More

Very good TV show. Story is interesting, characters are well developed, acting is superb, visuals and cinematography in general is great as well. There are no sex scenes either, which is another plus, because I find them unnecessary in TV shows and movies (unless they belong to erotic genre).
