It is an ambitious science fiction story, but it makes room for the more intimate moments of humanity.
In oftentimes harrowing fashion, "Extrapolations" looks at one possible future while offering enough scientific know-how to keep the series exciting even in the bleakest of times.
It’s a humane, carefully constructed but often frustrating project—and one that illustrates why insightful art about the climate crisis has proven so elusive.
Extrapolations does sometimes compel. But when opposing speechifiers go at it hammer and tongs about causes, effects and solutions, it can drag like a long night at the debating soc.
This lack of character development renders the show’s big, dramatic confrontations inert.
The show works a bit like a breezy and brisk collection of linked short stories, constantly moving forward, continually showing new consequences of our own inaction. Keeping the characters flat and underserved, though, makes the lavishly depicted world they inhabit feel less like a matter of concern. ... Clumsy in its delivery of information, “Extrapolations” is also maudlin where “Black Mirror” is icy.
Extrapolations is draining in all the wrong ways: It’s dull and disappointing from the start to its bitter, seemingly full-circle finish.
