    Really enjoyed the whole series, and when I heard about the adaptation I was psyched. It’s a very cinematic series that is begging for adaptation. While there’s definitely a lot of deadpan humor in the books, the trailer seems a lot more “whacky” than it should be. Hopefully they’re just playing it up for the trailer. I was also hoping for a more androgynous/NB murderbot but I could be won over. Either way, I’ll definitely be watching

      I do hope they haven’t removed some of the humans being a poly marriage.

      The preservation alliance is such an interesting societal concept.

        Yeah, since that unfolds later on maybe they can sneak it in without too much feather rustling. It’s not out front and center and they could include it without making it a focus pretty easily. Bojack Horseman did it, hopefully they won’t balk at it.

      Yeah I was really hoping for an androgynous murderbot. This is a character that’s disgusted by the implication that it might have sex characteristics
