Highly recommend Murderbot if you need a new hyperfixation. You may have already tried it, but it's worth a go.
sorry this ask is from a few months ago, but, i THINK it was in relation to me asking for anti-romance media recs a la iwtv.
i just watched the show and really liked it! i saw there were books and i’m putting them on my reading list but it’s probably gonna be a while before i get to them.
i really love how the show subverts the “robot learns to love humans” trope. because that IS what the show is about- secunit/murderbot DOES learn to love humans but it’s not enough to make it stay with them. i also love how the human gang are genuine idiots with real human traits but these humans do mean well. also the main crew are more queer people of colour than not, and that’s a delightful change of pace for a show like this??? (the polyamory is kinda framed as a hippie thing but they’re forgiven for that since the throuple storyline is really funny)
thanks for the rec i really liked this show!!!! 🫶
