@kctipton@mas.to#murderbot s1e10 -- WTAF? This is so gratuitious and far far from the book. A tight plot that makes sense is the right way, but these Weitz brothers lost the plot and are wrecking the story.
@compfu@mograph.socialI really like the #Murderbot opening titles! CGI made to look like 3D-printed plastic puppets. Made by Elastic (elastic.tv).

@kctipton@mas.to#murderbot I can't get over how this show is veering from the book. Did the Weitz brothers say "hey, wouldn't it be funny if SecBot did _this_?" and then write it into the show? The book was funny in the commentary, not in the actions of Secbot.
And, Gurathin, I'm sorry, but he has not fit in at all. He violated SecBot's privacy and Mensah's as well, and he prev…
@compfu@mograph.socialI like how #Murderbot (AppleTV ) lampoons its human cast - which is a somewhat "hippie" science crew that includes a non-binary team member - without being mean or lame. The titular Murderbot sees the crew's traits (soft, icky & unpredictable) as annoying because to him they are human traits and the show creates funny situations in that universe. It's not the case that the…

@cheryanne@aus.socialI gave in to temptation and decided to watch a couple of Murderbot episodes.
Being a responsible person I resolved to ration the rest out over the next 3 weeks. This would ensure that I could keep watching a couple of episodes every week as the final 3 episodes were released.
Great plan. In theory. But what did I do? I binged all of the 7 available episodes tonight!

@Jyoti@mas.toJust watched the season finale of #Murderbot and I am a lachrymose jelly, a sobbing pudding of tears.
arghhhhh
I didn't think the show would make me cry as much as the books.
I was wrong.

@niqdanger@social.linux.pizzaI really liked the Murderbot books, I recommend the highly. The AppleTV series doesn't visually picture some of the things the same way I did in my head, but the snark? Oh the snark. Fantastic. And not just from Muderbot, the rest of the cast is fantastic. #murderbot
@stf@chaos.sociallast year i was blessed to read the #murderbot series by Martha Wells. last week i had the pleasure to watch the series based on the 1st book. if you want to read something cool go buy the #books, and as an appetizer go and watch the tv series. both have my blessing of approval.
@kctipton@mas.to#murderbot What's with the gruesome scenes? And, LeeBeeBee losing a certain bodypart seems overkill. Couldn't she get shot in the leg like Gurathin? Oh well.
