Sense8

I love this show! It definitely took a lot of time to build up but the last two episodes were so worth it! Definitely hope season 2 picks up the pace a bit.

One of the greatest shows I have ever seen. They packed a lot of cool stuff in a single show. When it comes to LGBT characters in shows, this was great. LGBT characters can also exist on science fiction shows and be heroes.

I wonder if you might not have understood it.
The problem with really good science fiction that, in general, it is not written or produced for the general public.
For example, if you go back and watch some of the best of the original STAR TREK episodes, you find that many were written by science fiction author and that they were, well, thoughtful.
On the other hand, the current STAR TREK movies have been greatly dumbed-down over the decades, something that started during ST:TNG and continued (with a few exceptions) during the various TREK series. The reason, of course, this was dumb-downed – and producer J.J. Abrams even stated publicly he was doing that -- was to make in reach a "bigger audience" i.e. make more money.
"Sense 8" is a real science fiction series and one that deals with the "soft sciences" -- psychology, sociology, and such. There is even a philosophy to it -- something that has been removed from the current TREK movies.
Likely, right now, the best "hard sciences" science fiction on television is "The Expanse" based on -- and sticking fairly close to -- a series of hard SF novels of that name.
"Sense 8" is not for everyone -- because it was purposely NOT made for the general public.

No I'm sure he understood it. It was absolutely awful. Just like the Matrix movies, Cloud Atlas and Jupiter Ascending.
It's not that you have an understanding of something deep and profound that only a select few are smart enough to fathom. You just have bad taste ;D

I started watching the show because I heard there's an orgy scene in it, but then I became a huge fan of the show and those characters.
