Three body Problem (2024)

I loved season 1 but have concerns about the next seasons, especially s3.
The scope is just so huge, not sure how they could even do it, it was brain melting just imagining it.

Fingers crossed though!
 
True.

Though I hope Tencent (the Chinese version) do a season 2 as overall I preferred that to Netflix's. S1 had 30 episodes so was a lot more indepth than the western version.

Not actually watched that version and I do generally prefer subtitled original language versions of shows.

Where did you watch it?
 
On the high seas I'm afraid, though IMDB says : "It's available in the UK on Rakuten Viki"

Being 30 eps, it is incredibly drawn out and slow*, but I still preffered the depth it went to with the characters and story.

*For example, the part where she goes to the Labour camp and gets caught with the book, is what 15mins in Netflix? It was 3 whole episodes in the Tencent version :cry:

Is the first book much different to the series (no spoilers, please!)

Not sure if I should read them all, rather than just books 2 and 3.

Its one book with three sections.

The series is utter crap compared to the book and there's ZERO possibility of series 2 or 3 doing any justice to the book.

Do bear in mind the book is a translation from Chinese and isn't really similar in writing style to many/any other books you've bought in the west.

Thanks- very helpful- I'll get the book.

I'm currently reading a memoir of a 16th century Spanish soldier who fought the aztecs, so I should be OK with different styles!
 
The Netflix show is pretty awful compared to the books, the Chinese version is much closer and well worth watching (30 episodes I think compared to Netflixs 8).
