195 | Love, Death & Robots (Seasons 2-3)
Description
As promised in our discussion of Love, Death & Robots ❤️❌🤖 Season 1, the following two seasons received higher critical acclaim but needed to tweak the formula a bit, toning down the nudity and gore from the first season but also having to traverse the difficulties introduced by the COVID-19 pandemic. And while we all have our favorite episodes and notable stinkers like with Season 1, Marcus posits that Season 3 might possibly be the mythical anthology series season where every single episode is rock solid to absolutely mind-meltingly amazing. That's probably debatable (so let's debate it then!) but the gang can definitely agree that Love, Death & Robots has really found its stride in these seasons, losing a bit of shock value from the more traditionally "adult" themes but gaining a reputation in visual storytelling, short-form narratives, and really thought provoking pieces of genuine art. Content warning: SPOILERS, strong language.
