Over on Google Reviews, one person wrote: “All episodes have famous actors and the storyline pulls you in to the story. A must watch for sci-fi fans.

“Better than Black Mirror in the sense that most episodes have happy endings and Black Mirror had only San Junipero in the 1st season. Some of the CGI might not be as good as other shows, but everything else is 5 stars.”

While another wrote on X: “Been watching Philip K Dick’s electric dreams on prime + now I really need to read his written work bc wowwww such a shame there was only one season, it really needs another as it’s so thought-provoking + raises a lot of questions surrounding the nature of reality.”
