This was a slow burn series that apparently is never going to ever be sold, so the only way to watch it is on the Netflix. The fact I can’t find it on Amazon aside, I enjoyed the end result of Sense8, but had to suffer through some pretty unsteady story points (looking at you helicoptor chase scene) , and there some reeeally heavy handed transgendered / sexuality stuff going on here, so if you’re ok with exploring what makes for a person’s sexual identity and the struggles that everyone goes through in their life, Sense8 may be for you.

Can’t handle some freaky sexual ideas though, and you’re not going to have a good time.  Case in point?  every episode opens up with a montage of things going on around the world, which includes a couple of bears making out with each other and an ice cream cone with melty ice cream all over their mouths.   Made me confused and hot and bothered.
