If you enjoyed #Bodies on Netflix, I would recommend you check out #TheLazarusProject. Similar feel. London-based creative take on the time travel genre. I enjoyed S1 a lot and will start S2 soon.
(Streams on Sky in the UK/Germany, and on TNT or Spectrum in the US, or avail for purchase on AppleTV/Amazon/GooglePlay/Vudu).
My spouse watched #Bodies and it made me realize how ridiculous the #Scifi trope of projecting broadcasts on the side of tall buildings is. Imagine like you're trying to catch a nap before your shift in the button pressing factory and some politician is droning on while using your bedroom window as a loudspeaker. You/i would absolutely riot. #Netflix
"Oooh, the bad guy's said that I'm going to be instrumental in a huge bomb going off today! And he's left me a key! I think I'll go and find out what it opens, and open it! What could go wrong??" #Bodies
"Now the bad guy who wants to destroy London with a huge bomb says that I need to go to a certain place and talk to a certain person. I'd better do that!" #Bodies
Just watched the first episode of Bodies on Netflix. A police thriller set across multiple timelines involving similar seeming crimes. Gripping stuff and a great cliffhanger at the end. Apparently based on a graphic novel. Will definitely keep watching.
@liztai It's certainly an interesting series with good character development. We're up to episode four on #Netflix now, but are wondering if we've missed something in the storytelling. We'll watch it to conclusion, but I'm reserving judgement on it until it ends. 💀💀💀💀
My 6-yr old asked one of the BIG questions the other day.
"Daddy, why do we live?"
Knowing that he's being influenced by the ubiquitous #god botherers, I responded:
"Because of #electricity, little buddy. Kind of like the lightbulbs in our house, we all have a #spark in us that runs through our #bodies and #brains. When that spark goes out, we die."
He thought a bit about that, and then came the next BIG question:
"We become a part of the electricity that runs through the entire #planet that let's everything live. Which is super important, because without that electricity, nothing would live."
We have watched 4 of the 8 episodes of Bodies, a new "genre-bending" mini-series on Netflix, where four detectives in four different time periods of London find themselves investigating the same murder. Great acting and excellent production values, we stopped because it was just too unbelievable, confusing, and a tad silly. Such a shame, because a series devoted to just any one of the 4 murders on their own would have been great. But all lumped together it became so confusing.
Just watched #Bodies on Netflix. Hadn’t read the graphic novel, but prob should find a copy somewhere. Nice time loopy stuff, kind of Dark-lite.
Only two minor problems I had with it were 1) the decision to cast a brown eyed actor as young Elias, so they gave him freaky AF blue contacts to wear (perhaps the extra psychotic appearance was deliberate?) and 2) the usual Netflix American subtitles for British English whiplash
