Prime Video’s comedy Upload, starring Robbie Amell, doubles down on satire in a third season that may just be its best yet. Read on for our review.
The first season of Upload felt like it arrived at just the right time. Michael Schur's afterlife comedy The Good Place had just come to an end and everybody was looking for something to watch in its place. Upload offered the right mix of cynicism, comedy, and satire. Season 2 arrived two whole years after the first, with an abbreviated run of episodes, yet it still garnered enough of an audience to get Prime Video to renew the series for a third season.
'Upload' Season 3 Continues to Wage War Against Rampant Capitalism The first two seasons of Upload struck a balance between being the kind of comfort television that Daniels has been long known for and being a satire on rampant capitalism, all while not too far off from reality. From heads exploding à la Scanners to an ultra-quirky but lovable AI bellhop , the series has always had a knack for being more off-kilter.
The messaging may be a little on-the-nose , but that doesn't make it not effective. It works because the two worlds that Daniels has created in Upload, both the real world and the digital afterlife, feel real. In fact, despite the series taking place a decade into the future, many of the scenarios in the show might become a reality much sooner than just 10 years from now.
