In the eighth episode, we’ve reached the finale, but nothing is going as it should. Saul narrowly escapes an assassination attempt by self-driving cars, only to be interrogated and protected by Da Shi. It’s immediately clear that Da Shi knows more than the audience or Saul himself. Together, they travel to the United Nations, where… — read more

Episode seven, and we can already see the finish line, yet the pace picks up once more. The cryogenic facility is an interesting detail, as it’s introduced mainly in the context of being used for the probe. However, it’s so large that a full human can’t be sent, only something much smaller, like a brain.… — read more

Episode six is a key episode when you think about everything that’s still to come. What keeps coming to my mind while watching this episode is the question of how we, as humans in the real world, would react. A negative reaction is briefly shown at the end of episode five, and then we only… — read more

Episode five is my favorite, and for many reasons. For those who don’t know, I’m quite fascinated by Sophon and her German voice actress, Sophie Rogall. When Wade and Jin manage to decode the Judgment Day data disc, they enter the virtual reality of the game and are greeted by Sophon. She explains why all… — read more

First, we learn that Ye Wenjie is brought to Michael Evans on the Judgment Day, and at the beginning of the series, during Vera’s funeral, we found out that Vera is their daughter. This is another aspect that is portrayed differently in the book. I wonder if this connection was chosen in the series to… — read more

At the start of the third episode, another dead scientist is found. I noticed that I really like Benedict Wong’s new voice actor. It gives a clear distinction from his role in the MCU films. Usually, I’m not a fan of such changes, but in this case, it works really well. The relationship between Will… — read more

At the end of the second episode, I wanted to make a separate post. The reason is that I’m wondering if this is just a dramatic portrayal in both the series and the book, or a form of social criticism. I mean, Ye Wenjie, due to all her experiences, believes that humanity is so messed… — read more

The universe winked at us! Man, I can’t get enough of this visual representation. Just imagine that you’re coming home one evening or on your way. The night sky isn’t too obscured by the city’s background light, so you can see many stars. Suddenly, everything starts blinking like a TV constantly turning on and off.… — read more

Okay, I’m seriously considering whether I should write one or two posts per episode because I haven’t even really started the second episode yet, and I could already write books about the first episode. During my last rewatch, I had just finished the first book. As I mentioned, I have now read all three. I’m… — read more

So, once again, a new series. Since I’ve read the books by now, I think 3 Body Problem is a good choice. A quick warning: it’s hard to discuss without spoilers. If you want to enjoy the three books and the series without any spoilers, you might not want to read further. This is a… — read more
