Review of Solos

Solos (2021)
Just a middling drama
21 May 2021
Although this show is billed as Sci-fi, in reality it's just a middling drama. Each episode is a snapshot of a character's entire life and how their choices have shaped their life and current situation. The novelty wears off by episode 4.

All the sci-fi mumbo jumbo is, in fact, unnecessary. All the stories would be just fine even if you remove the stray themes of time travel, dystopia and space travel.

The writers tried hard to lend depth to the characters but in just 30-minute episodes, it is hard to delve deeper. All in all, a decent watch. But don't expect Black Mirror kind hard hitting themes.
