Matabot

Thanks to Chris and Paul Weitz’s working with original author Martha Wells to create a faithful adaptation, this is one of the most fun series to ever land on Apple TV+.

...enjoyable if you like emotional dramas with a dry humour and sci-fi.

It’s goofy, sure, but it’s also kinda great.

Alexander Skarsgård is hella cool as a bored Robocop who hates all humans.

It is both genuinely funny and surprisingly moving, a sharp-eyed social commentary, and a meditation on the role of both technology and connection in broader society.

Don’t read too much into the name. There is not a huge amount of murder in Murderbot, but there’s plenty of thinking about it.
