Tales from the Loop 2020

First of, the designs/backgrounds are really beautiful. Kind of like Steam-Punk, but in the 70ies. If it would be just for the visuals I'd rate it 10/10.
As for the stories behind it, the series was described to me as "surprisingly wonderful stories, if you are open to it". The description is kind of true as you have to withstand a painfully slow pace and a lot of dull dialogs before getting to the actual story. What is disappointing is, that the stories in the episodes feel like they are adapted from things you have already seen.
- Small town with a mysterious tech Industry... seem a bit like Eureka
- Transpose, very much like "Freaky Friday"
- Statis, feels like some Gadget you'd see in a Doctor Who episode
- Echo Sphere, the whole thing feels like working in an old peoples home

The general feeling seems a bit like a calmer version of Black Mirror. Displaying the dangers of tech when combined with human emotions.

Beautiful images, ok stories, annoying slow pace.
