Hybrid (non-pejorative)

After watching this drama, although I have read and watched not many sci-fi works, I also feel that many plots and character designs are very familiar, and I can feel that the screenwriter's reference materials should be well prepared. In fact, some plot designs are not very compatible and coordinated from the look and feel, because they want to stuff a lot of things into this show, discussing human cloning, religion, soul, human nature, etc.

Therefore, if this work can be summed up in one word, my feelings are mixed. Although the word itself has a tendency to be derogatory, but here, I don't think mixing it is necessarily bad, at least it won't be the reason for my low score. I still like this drama very much, because I have finished watching 10 episodes, and there is no Abandoned the show halfway through.

There is no rule that sci-fi dramas must have their own brand-new world view and structure. Those who can build their own universe are masters, okay? For an entertainment TV series, I will not expect more.

The absorption and transplantation of some of the current science fiction elements in the work, in my opinion, makes this drama similar to a literature summary, you can see the aspects you are interested in, and you can explore more related content.

At least after watching it, I have decided to finish the works such as "The Son of Methuselah", "A Brief History of the Future" and "Beijing Folding" that I have not read before.

In fact, we are now gradually entering the world depicted by those science fiction works, which may be called the eve of science fiction. Primate monkeys already have clones, and 3D-printed prosthetic limbs and organs have also been realized. People who have installed bionic legs say that prosthetic limbs are better than real legs, and they will not replace real legs. So the body production conditions are gradually maturing, and the only difficulty is probably the storage and transfer of human consciousness, but if even this can be done, maybe human beings have really evolved into another species.
