This forces me to confess I haven’t read the Aldous Huxley book… but SURELY it doesn’t have all that fucking in it. Does it? Hmm. ANYWAY – it sorta teeters on the bullshittish for a long way, before tipping right over into it at the end. Useful that in the here & now we have the technology to represent the future on screen in a sophisticated way, but this show can’t be THAT close to the source material in content, because there’s no way this show could ever make it into a “best book of all time” list. Distracting also is Harry Lloyd, who even with shortish black hair still make me constantly think of Viserys from season 1 of Game of Thrones.
