Netflix granted a reprieve, in the form of a feature-length special that you can watch on Friday, June 8. You've just about got enough time to catch up. There are 23 episodes, all just under an hour long, except for the feature-length New Year's special in the middle. Here are eight reasons you absolutely should.
There's a lot of gloomy, distressing sci-fi around at the moment. Westworld and The Handmaid's Tale are genius, but they're not exactly joyful escapism. Sense8 takes place in a world that's recognisably ours, but with this secret underground culture of psychic families called clusters. These are groups of people who can see and feel each other's thoughts and feelings and experiences, wherever they happen to be on the planet.
