Sense 8

Sense 8 is an American Science Fiction Drama.Discussing Sense8 on an episodic level demands discussion of its production and form. After a single episode, there simply isn’t enough concrete story to discuss on its own terms. And that’s fine. The “sense” part of the title is what’s essential here; Sense8 is a show that wants to start with a luscious visual experience first, attracting interest with its production, before it starts making sense.In many ways, Sense8 has the premise of one of the many post-Lost pseudo-science-fiction flops—say, Flashforward or The Nine. It’s inauspicious, to say the least, to start with Darryl Hannah seeing visions and ranting about what she can and can’t do, to stop or start some event. Most of these bragged about what they could do with the mystery, how that would all pay because of a long-term plan that almost never came to fruition, thanks to the fact that they tended to forget that you need short-term arcs and growth in addition to long-term reveals.
