TV show description:
This science-fiction series follows a group of strangers from different cultures and parts of the world. They are all the same age and share the same birthday.
They all experience a tragic death through dreams or visions and then find themselves growing mentally and emotionally connected. Confused, they try to figure out how the connection happened and what it means.
The group of “sensates” includes Berlin locksmith and safe-cracker Wolfgang Bogdanow (Max Riemelt) who are involved with organized crime; Nomi Marks (Jamie Clayton), a lesbian transgender woman in San Francisco; Mumbai pharmacist Kala Dandekar (Tina Desai), a devout Hindu who’s engaged to marry a man she doesn’t love; and an Icelandic DJ named Riley Blue (Tuppence Middleton) whose troubled past has sent her fleeing to London.
There’s also Lito Rodriguez (Miguel Ángel Silvestre), a closeted gay telenovela actor in Mexico City; Chicago cop Will Gorski (Brian J. Smith) who’s haunted by an unsolved murder from his youth; Capheus (Aml Ameen), a Matatu van driver in Nairobi who’s trying earn enough to buy medicine for his sick mother; and a kickboxer named Sun Bak (Doona Bae) who’s also the daughter of a powerful Seoul businessman.
A mysterious man named Jonas Maliki (Naveen Andrews) tries to help the sensates while another stranger called Whispers (Terrence Mann) attempts to hunt them down. Whispers uses the same power to gain full access to their thoughts and sight after looking into their eyes.
Episode #24 — Amor Vincit Omnia
Passions run high as the Sensates and their closest allies fight to save the cluster and stop their enemies for good.
First aired: June 8, 2018.
What do you think? Do you like the Sense8 TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Please Not, this show is multi-faceted, multicultural, realistic it’s a good show. it es seen en the 5 Continents. Wow Nexflex do not do it. I’m still waiting for Marco Polo too.
The plot is captivating, the cinematography superb and for once a storyline narrated at a pace that allowed thia amazing cluster of characters to develop naturally and fully. So why cancel the show now, and even worse leave all the audience without a resolution to the story?
Noooooooo!!!! Do not end this show, I have to know what happened to Nick and I have to see what they do with Whispers and how the end this war..come on
bring the show back, cancel something else
I hope the series return for another season
Great series. Amazing character development for what is (sort-of) a Sci-Fi series. Many more seasons please!
This is one of several hugely entertaining and innovative shows I have seen. Sense8 is the top one for innovative ideas. How cool would that be ? Or not. I hope it continues for a long time , the Wolfgang is pretty hot.
Watched all of season 2 in bingefest. Love this show. Actors are awesome. We have to have season 3 to tie up some things. Please renew!!!!
Hi Netflix announced this morning that it has picked up Sense8 for a second season. http://deadline.com/2015/08/netflix-renews-sense8-wachowskis-1201495857/
Most original and provocative series I’ve seen in ages. Sure hope it gets renewed.
Just finished watching the series last night – so, so good! I definitely want a second (and more!) series so I hope renewal is announced very soon!
Great show. Maybe the best I’ve watched all year. I’ll be seriously disappointed if it’s not renewed.
I find this show to be enormously provocative. The acting is excellent across the board; the production values are amazing considering the size of the cast, the worldwide locations and the superb photography. And we love the spiritual subtext that pervades every episode. Please, please let this show not be cancelled. We want to see how the relationships are developed between the strangers in this small tribe that is somehow connected by Love. What a great, totally engrossing saga!.
First Netflix series I’ve watched. Terrific show…highly imaginative, multi-national and totally engrossing. I hope it’s renewed. And if Netflix offers programming like this, I’ll be checking out their other offerings. Well done, Netflix.
I hope it is renewed, I called Netflix to voice my support of it, and my absolute infuriation if it wasn’t renewed. I would hope that my fellow Netflix subscribers and sense8 supporters would do the same, it does help. I binge watched it over the course of three days as well. Just a great show. I will enjoy it again. I also found the first two episodes a little slow at first, but will go back and re-watch them, at leisure and see if after they make more sense now. 🙂
