“Hence, the #sciencefictional trick of #ThePeripheral, which is to turn the separation between the 1% and the 99% into a metaphor of physics (or, perhaps, information). The two literally live in different universes.” open.substack.com/pub/programm...

Hot take incoming:
Amazon’s decision to not renew #ThePeripheral will ultimately be seen as a bigger blunder than Fox’s decision to not renew #Firefly.
Just did a rewatch. What a fantastic show, and a wonderful adaptation of the #WilliamGibson novel.
Such a shame that the world only got this one season of Chloë Grace Moretz’s portrayal of Flynne Fisher.

In what world can someone cancel "The Peripheral" at the end of season 1, and someone else make 3 seasons of "Invasion"?
I'm still watching it, but surely no one knows what's going on...

@Weirding_Is_Real
Canceling that show was an absolute bonehead move by Amazon. It was soooo good. -

To whoever mentioned "The Peripheral," thank you. I enjoyed that.

Just finished season 1 of The Peripheral, based on a 2014 Gibson novel of the same name. It seems season 2 was cancelled, which is disappointing. But I'd still recommend it. Each of the 8 episodes has enough of an internal arc to make them satisfying to watch, while still wanting more, as does the season as a whole.

Yesterday I finished "The Peripheral" by W.Gibson.
Without spoiling anything, I'll just say that I liked it, but in some parts I had trouble understanding certain scenes.
I had the feeling that the writer took for granted the knowledge of certain elements, or that he relied a little too much on the reader's imagination.
I'll definitely read its sequel, "Agency" because I want to know more about the characters and I want to see if some things are finally explained. -

So it turns out the most unrealistic aspect of Amazon’s adaptation of @GreatDismal #ThePeripheral; how nice, clean, ordered, and *undestroyed by climate damage* is the little (river) town of our protagonists (see banner image for link).

I'll admit it -- the news of the past few days has been a bit much for even me to believe. It's like we're in the middle of a #PerfectStorm where #Injustice, #Fascism, #ExtremeWeather, #Ecocide, #HumanRightsViolations and #CorporatePowerGrabs are happening all at once... Talk about #Polycrisis on so many levels. Is this the start of the #Jackpot? Seriously...!

I don't like to watch ongoing tv shows cause they get cancelled and you have to wait years for the ending and they usually go to shit.
But I accidentally started watching PrimeVideo's #Fallout and it's brilliant and now I'm hooked and Amazon, fuck, don't pull another #ThePeripheral on me -

Having been blown away by The 3 Body Problem and in need of #SciFi to hold us over until #Fallout, we went back and revisited #ThePeripheral on #Prime.
We got 2 episodes in before we agreed we hadn't read the book (which is odd, because we are both very much fans of #WilliamGibson's work)
A friend said "It got worse the longer it went on", and I gotta agree. The last 3 or so episodes felt like one long, but rushed, exposition dump. Even bad theatre does a better job of Showing Not Telling than this poor writing did. It was so bad the closer it got to the end, I was left wondering if it was a Neil Stephenson story
If there's a 2nd season, I won't have any expectations, I won't care if it sucks and I decide to let it go.
So, on to Fallout! Geeze I hope this is as silly as the first couple of games were 😉
As always, if you're into a good series, especially good Sci Fi, leave a comment! I'll be all to happy to tell you why you're wrong for liking it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

4 episodes into #3BodyProblem and liking what they’ve done with it 👍
Of course, that’s about as far as I got with #ThePeripheral (the other exciting recent SF show premised on a technologically more advanced world recruiting allies in ours through a game headset).

I can only imagine how disappointed Katie Leung was when her interesting character on the book turned out so bland on the show. #ThePeripheral

Thank goodness it’s Apple and not #Amazon #Prime. They cancelled Gibson’s #ThePeripheral which was top notch TV, and now I will never, ever, *ever* get a Prime membership.
I will use someone else’s to watch #RingsOfPower though 😏🤫

Great that #AppleTV is creating an adaptation of #Neuromancer, but I would have much rather them rescue #ThePeripheral from its cancellation by Amazon. That show was off to such a promising start, and it would have been exciting to see how they would have handled the massive escalation of the struggle over that timeline.

At last, I understand: the wrong people read #ThePeripheral and Agency, and decided the Jackpot is actually good for them.

The number of stubs in @GreatDismal #ThePeripheral is fairly large; Lev is part of a community of continua enthusiasts who each deal with several stubs.
The philosophical question of whether stubs are ontologically separate or only epistemologically so becomes important.

#ChirpBooks has the audiobook for The Peripheral by William Gibson on sale for just $5.99 for a limited time. If you're like me and was interested in picking this up after seeing the show (second season cancelled 🙁) then this is a great deal.
