In this time of social distancing and spending a lot more of your day at home, chances are you’re watching all kinds of movies and TV shows, including plenty of action and horror titles. It definitely seems like the plethora of streaming services available were made for this moment in time. As you plot out your next binge, though, you’re in luck. The decision has already been made. It’s time to stop everything you’re doing and watch the new TV series Upload on Amazon Prime Video.
Upload is a comedy from The Office creator Greg Daniels and is set in a future that feels a little too possible. When you’re about to die, you have the option of having your consciousness "uploaded" into a digital world that is magnificent–on the surface.
The show follows Nathan (Robbie Amell), who meets an untimely death in a car accident and finds himself uploaded into the most lavish of digital afterlives, thanks to his well-off girlfriend footing the bill. From there, the series explores everything from how dependent humans have become on technology to microtransactions, which have become prevalent in the gaming industry. Yes, while you can buy your way into a better digital heaven, once you’re there you should expect to be financially gouged for practically everything, while also being inundated with ads.
