Tales from the Loop

[NOMAAA 1696]

anyone else watching?  got through the first episode last night.  very good sci fi/drama in the same vein as Prime/Upstream Color.

My biggest challenge is deciding if it's a chick flick, teen romp or true sci-fi. Has a monkey paw kinda surprise element to it, but it (so far, 4 episodes) is driven by teen or younger leads. It's OK, but at times awkward with teen sex & uncomfortable family situations. 2¢

Any more sex after the 3rd episode?  Watched the first couple with my younger kids and got surprised by the doing it in episode 3.

Was that the Asian girl episode? If so, not yet

Aside from the may episode I don’t see how you could call it a teen romp. I’m only 4 in and this is fantastic science fiction.  I love it.

Watched the first 3 last night, definitely my jam. It's very similar to black mirror, but more interconnected stories and a little more fantastical instead of future tech.

On episode 6 at the moment.  Definitely a weird vibe and reminds me of twilight zone especially in how people have a very different viewpoint at the end of each episode than they did in the beginning.

the atmosphere is combination of the 60s/70s plus some advanced tech. I'm also wondering why does everyone at the loop seem so depressed to be working there.

Finished it. Weird little series, enjoyed it.

Has been on my watch list. 

Finally got to see all episode and I would say the show falls flat on its face. The concepts are neat but putting a timeline on all episode to the end doesn't sit well. It's a meh...

I just finished it a couple of days ago.  I found the very deliberate pace to be a little annoying, but enjoyed it over all.  I was disappointed that no one seemed to care that Gaddis One was missing from his universe.

The retro vibe reminded me of Lost, while the music had me channeling The Leftovers.
