Sunny

Loving the retro yet futuristic esthetic of the visuals and set design! A bit early to speak from an overall perspective since just two episodes have been released thus far, but it feels very promising!

Rashida is a great casting for Suzie and the overall mystery of the series feels very eery and intriguing.

I also like the buddy cop dynamic growing between Suzie and Sunny.

Apple TV keeps delivering!

I guess Apple's strategy of releasing multiple episodes at the start of the season is a good one since it was the first couple of episodes that got me hooked. In the first 2-3 episodes, the tone was darkly funny, the mystery engaging, and the development of the relationship between Rashida Jones's character and the robot was interesting. After that, though, the show pretty much fell off of a cliff, devolving into inane subplots involving the Yakuza and spinning its wheels for several episodes with the plot going nowhere, the relationships taking a backseat, and the central mystery suddenly being ignored. It's too bad because there was a good show in here somewhere, but it seems to have gotten lost in effort to stretch things out over 10 episodes.

This is a slow burn series, but you only get half way through the story as Apple has cancelled it.

I did enjoy the show, but it's a bit of a slow story line so it takes a bit of stamina to get into it. But when you do get to start enjoying the characters, and the funny humour of their interactions, you find the series ends and the story has only been half told.

This series cries out for a second season and I believe it would have been a great success if Apple had any foresight or courage. This could of become series people would talk about years from now.

But it seems they are like most other streaming services, only after a quick buck.

The show started well, the future, new interesting technologies, Japanese culture, mystery and thriller... but at one point the concept changes. The story is supposed to be told from the eyes of Suzie and Mixxy as the main actors, but the story expands and spends a lot of time on background stories of other characters where it slowly starts to lose fun like at the start... but omg the ninth episode, is for children... little children... It's a shame a good idea was ruined, how it started could have been something special, this way it will be forgotten very quickly, and actors will have a harder time getting better roles because of a childish show.

P.s. The robot should have a dark mode on face/screen, how could Suzie sleep next to him when he is shining like cinema...

First of all I would like the creators of this show to acknowledge their love of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, because they named a character Boss Tanaka and he's even the same actor as Boss Tanaka in Kill Bill 1. THEN they name another character Boss Matsumoto. Oh, c'mon! And there are no mentions of this obvious influence in any interviews, but it's so obvious.

That said, I've really been enjoying the show. The writing is fairly clever with enough witty lines to balance out Rashida's dry and unlikeable character. The robot is really impressive to look at but also grows more human all the time. Actually I see a lot of my parrot in the robot, which is sometimes creepy but shows you that everything has emotions. Except robots right now, but we're probably headed there. The story isn't really as gripping as I'd like and it's definitely a slow series, but still very entertaining. I love subtitles so to me the languages blend seamlessly, but I can see how that might bother some whiny Americans. I like that it's set in Japan and seems true to other Japanese made movies and shows with how it's made, the acting, and how over the top the Japanese actors are. It gets better with each episode and I'm glad they made something different that isn't superhero related. It's refreshing that it's at least somewhat original, and definitely weird.
