Not sure if you watched up to the end of season 4, but it ends on a cliffhanger. They were building to a final season that would answer the “Can humanity and AI coexist in the same world?” question that the series had been asking since the beginning.
Maybe another season or two came out after I finished. It has been years, but I remember it ending with a mass murder orchestrated by - I think - Anthony Hopkins. Man, I barely remember, but I think he had all the bots kill the scientists, or something like that to shut the project down? I guess I need to go watch it again.
That was the ending of season 1, they did make 3 more seasons after that. If that is a satisfying ending, you’re fine leaving it at that, but I did like the later stuff a bit.
Huh, idk how I never heard about the following seasons. Are they any good?
They’re mixed. I think season 1 was the peak of the series but I still found the others to be enjoyable/thought provoking enough to be worth it. Not everyone thinks the same, however, and wish it ended at season 1.
So I’d say if you feel fulfilled, you’re good with just season 1. If you feel like you want more, there are 3 more seasons, but I would honestly wait until season 5 comes out (if ever, unlikely) because otherwise it’s not going to provide a satisfying conclusion as-is.
Okay, thank you. I will just wait then.
