I've heard about this show, i first remember hearing it about last summer. It's a new sci-fi drama series based on a Swedish show called Äkta människor (or Real Humans). So it's a remake of that show basically? I also didn't know it's a co-production between AMC in the States and Ch4 over here in the UK. That must be a first, surely. The main cast seems to be William Hurt, Katherine Parkinson, Tom Goodman-Hill, Gemma Chan alongside Brits Colin Morgan, Rebecca Front and Neil Maskell and the show is written by the team behind Spooks. The official synopsis: Quote:
HUMANS, a bold new eight-part drama series from AMC, Channel 4 and Kudos, is set in a parallel present where the latest must-have gadget for any busy family is a ‘Synth’ – a highly-developed robotic servant eerily similar to its live counterpart. In the hope of transforming the way they live, one strained suburban family purchases a refurbished synth only to discover that sharing life with a machine has far-reaching and chilling consequences.
The tagline:Quote:
Made in our image. Out of our control
Goodman-Hill and Parkinson are the husband and wife of the family with Chan playing the Synth.It starts in the States on Sun 28th June so i expect we'll get it the day after on Ch4. Quote:
The trailer is very clever making it look like they are opening a store in Regent Street and advertising a website.

Just thought: if these Synths are capable of cooking, what if they deliberately food poisoned their masters?

I have, I thoroughly enjoyed it
I hope the new version is as good.Personally, I feel that Swedish version will be the strongest, although no doubt others will enjoy the new Humans version. |

I'm just hoping it's not:
Humans build robots with a set of rules Some humans mistrust/resent the robots Robots break the rules and turn on humans as that story line has been done so many times |

They haven't made a season 3.
This is what comes of following lots of different series at the same time

Is it just me or is there very little promo/advertising for this show considering it starts this Sunday on Ch4? I've seen a couple of tv spots and that's about it. Have any of the cast made appearances on any shows?
