Upload is an upcoming American science fiction comedy satire web television series created by Greg Daniels set to premiere May 1, 2020 on Prime Video.

Upload is set in a future where "humans are able to 'upload' themselves into their preferred choice of afterlife. When Nathan meets his early death, he is greeted by Nora in his version of heaven. The series follows the two as Nathan grows accustomed to life away from his loved ones, and the alive Nora struggles to stay afloat working her job alongside Nathan in the afterlife."



The trailer looks solid, but anything Greg Daniels touches turns to gold for me. I hadn't heard of this until I listened to an Office Ladies podcast (Booze Cruise) that had Greg on a guest. With as much time as we're spending at home, I will definitely be giving this a shot.

This is the only version of afterlife I'm down with.

This was released on Amazon Prime today. Ep1 was pretty good. A few laughs. A few misses. Feel like they're laying some seeds to take it kind of serious. I the futuristic world it's building. Feels real and all as crazy scifi.

Watching the first episode. Pretty funny, I like the leads. Interested to see where they take it.

This show was fantastic. Way deeper than the previews make it and sets up a pretty great cliffhanger for season 2. Binged it all yesterday. Hilarious.

Finished this morning. Really enjoyed it. They built a very interesting future. It was like a rom com that was actually funny and enjoyable. They really started getting serious the last few episodes. It's going to be a pain to wait for season 2 because of where it was going and left off.

I finished this last night and was sad it ended...especially like that. I definitely can't wait until [hopefully] season 2. I do wish the episodes would have been a little longer.

I described it to a friend as Silicon Valley meets Boack Mirror. I really enjoyed it.

I think s1 was more of the opening chapter to this. So much room to go and very little advancement of the overall story on why he is dead. I enjoyed it. Can't tell if the GF is good or not. Dad obviously not.

This felt like a more comedic drawn out episode of Black mirror crossed with the good place and I am here for it. So good. I rolled my eyes initially at the potential mystery element but it really sucked me in.

My fave crossover was Oscar Meyer Intel, especially because of what they were sponsoring.

Trying to figure out what two companies made up Horizon. Has to be Verizon and not sure who.

Also, I wonder how you become a 3 generation unlimited data family since this is set in 2033? I also wish they would have explained the water pressure problem. Maybe due to water rationing?

Finished the gray market episode last night. So many great gags in the background.

A little over halfway through it. I'm really enjoying it, and needed something to watch since my free HBO ran out at the end of April.

Was the pilot filmed 4 years b4 the 2nd episode? The leads look much older

We finished it last night and both the wife and I really enjoyed it. However, we both had the same thought of why did they need to inject so many strange sex themes/scenes? Just didn't seem to fit with the tone of the rest of the show

I've only seen the first two episodes this morning and I immediately noticed something was up from the first to second episode, especially Nora.

I really enjoyed that. When I first saw the trailer I rolled my eyes and kept scrolling. My wife decided to put it on while I was tucking the baby in. She went to Sleep and I binged the whole season.

I can't imagine a worse hell than 2 gig world.

Also, as a Christian, I definitely rolled my eyes at what seemed like a direct advertisement against Christianity at multiple points. But then Nora's dad had just as much airtime seemingly supporting it. What a breath of fresh air that both viewpoints are presented. Hope they keep it that way.

Finished season 1 this morning. I love this show! There are so many great one liners, but it also has actual depth.

Halfway through and really enjoying it. The military guy and his angel make me laugh all the time, especially the fingers and dick episode.

Surprised this show isn't getting more traction. Has kind of an Idiocracy vibe.

Seven episodes in. I'm really enjoying it. It's pretty funny with some nice heartfelt moments. And the mystery surrounding Nathan's death is intriguing too.

Just binged the whole thing. Man, this has my mind all over the place. Definitely makes me wonder if things like this are already in the works. Hell, we might even be uploaded right now and don't even know it. The show was brilliant. I watched one episode, and before I knew it, I was 6 episodes down. Can't wait for the next season.

I know I'm late to the party on this one as usual, but I just finished season #1 and really enjoyed it. Ready for season #2, whenever that may be.

Definitely developed well over the season with steadily increasing complexity, thought provoking, cute, funny, but not too deep or serious.

The soul discussion was deep, and capped when they looked at the ginger AI and both said "well he doesn't have a soul. "

Just catching up now before season 2, which is hopefully soon, and I really really like it.

It's kind of like the good place, and that's a good thing. Great original premise, good comedy, good chemistry with the leads, Hope more people hop on so it gets a season 3.
