Weird City - Season 1
We live here a lot of science fiction and comedy events that explore the city 'Weird'. This city is a future city where the people live in in the future. The events begins when a group of Above-the-Liners decide to sponsor a poor Below the Line kid, they agree to do more than simply donate money. They kidnap him.

If Black Mirror is a dark warning sign not to forget our humanity, Weird City is a bright, flashing neon light that pokes fun at us while also reminding us we're probably doomed.

Very funny, but it puts story and characters above commentary all the way through.

Weird City's writing is sharp and self-aware enough to at least give it a shot.

In an era where satire can feel dull, Weird City feels like a breath of air. It's a little on the nose. But it's also fully aware that it's on the nose between the Blade Runner references and the meta-textual references.

Yet, even at a sprightly average of 25 minutes, most Weird City episodes feel like sketch ideas that have been stretched out a little too far.

I don't begrudge Charlie Sanders's YouTube Premium series Weird City for taking a big swing, even if the series mostly misses.

The costume design is amazing. O'Brien's shirt collars deserve their own Emmy. Can we get someone on that?

I wish this show wasn't behind a paywall, because I feel like so many people would love to watch this show.

Has the same targets as the acclaimed Netflix show - our obsession with technology and how it invades our lives and often corrupts our intentions. But it plays these anxieties for laughs.

It's a perfect device for injecting class conflict into what's basically a satirical science fiction fantasy. Of course, like all anthologies, some episodes are better than others.
