I just finished the last episode of season one, after finding myself unexpectedly drawn to the show. I wasn’t sure what to think going in and am glad I stayed. It can be gruesome at times, which is probably why my partner didn’t want to continue it, but I loved the story and cinematics quite a bit. I think Alexander Skarsgård performed excellently in this role. And rotten tomatoes indicates that people agree.

With so many shows being canceled, I have no expectations when watching anything. I’m happy to learn that Murderbot will have a second season. 💜🤖

P.s. I can’t wait for more Sanctuary Moon as well. Haha!

    You’ve missed the point of the novels then. Murderbot is a slave until by chance he breaks his programming. He’s trying to keep up the slave facade despite being rather autistic.

      He didn’t break it “by chance”, he broke it intentionally. Robots do not break their programming, because they have no desire to. Nor do they watch television. Sometimes it reacts like a robot, and other times it reacts like a human. Which one is it? It can’t be both.
