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?
I love sense 8. The amount of talent in the cimetography, casting and plot is worthy of renewal. This show is celebrating the human race and is well loved. Please listen to your fans.
Great show ive been waitinf on the next season. And as normal they cancel the good ones and keep the crappy shows who makes these decisions I think they nerd someone
better not impressed
Why do you continue to keep cancelling the shows I love… this should have been renewed. I am gutted it’s been cancelled.
Wow another tv series cancelled this one to me was good, it was different. It should be renewed.
But why??? Freedom of speech but this show was the bomb!!! Like bring the darn show back.
Still cancelled, but after more than half a million petitioners (me too) cared for Sense8, Netflix “heard them” and agreed to produce a 2-hours special in 2018. I would say that’s a good compromise and shows the power of the crowd. I hope that everything will be fine for this special (budget, actor’s schedule, production teams etc.) so that it can be as great as the rest of the show.
I am very upset with Netflix. As a loyal Netflix customer 4 years and have seen the few gems that has emerge from Netflix Originals series and documentaries. I won’t even talk about the movies. There can be independent films and then there can be cheap B movies. So I was amazed to stumble across sense8 and I was late to the game so to speak and I was in the middle of watching the series when there was leaking information that there wasn’t going to be a second season of sense8 made. So it took a lot of unhappy… Read more »
Sense 8 should never have been cancelled . ..at least do a movie to close out the characters .
What a very bad decision made by Netflix to cancel Sense8! This show was unique, original and exciting. I loved it and sincerely hope they at least wrap up the series with a few more episodes or a final season. The 8 are all in one country now and production costs should be lowered enough because of that to warrant a wrap up. Leaving us all on the edge of a war is just plain cruel! Please , please finish the series rather than just dumping it.
Best show I’ve seen in a long time, although I can understand that the filming is expensive because of all the different countries (which are real and not a set)but I don’t think that Netflix is hurting for money.
Too bad it’s been cancelled. Perhaps if it hits mainstream television in more countries of the world Netflix will be forced to rethink their decision and continue.
Love, this show. It is so unique, exciting, captivating and lovely. Please don’t cancel!
I absolutely love that show and I’m devastated that it would end without closure.
Amazing, beautiful, well written, intelligent, …. Soooo many great things going for this show. Don’t cancel it!!!
This conservative couple truly loves and enjoys Sense8 !!!
This show is AMAZING please keep it and cancel something else!
Just signed Petition and Left message with Netflix customer services Hope this series is re instated Cant leave fans in the lurch it was just getting exciting with the abduction of Wolfgang and the taking of Whispers and Jonas
Where do you go to sign the petition? Thanks in Advance!! 🙂
Laura did he ever give you the site info where the petition to Netflix to avoid a lot of loyal Netflix customers that happened to also be loyal sense8 series viewers from becoming very upset by canceling one of its best Netflix original series without obviously thinking it through. With all the ridiculous Netflix series that they keep making and even worse the movie sequels that they are making to movies that were filmed by other production studios and were hits but never wanted to make a sequel, for example Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, the sequel Netflix made, the Blade… Read more »
