I enjoyed Altered Carbon’s first season but was out immediately after s2e1. Wasnt aware of it being an interpretation of a book. Is the first season more accurate, or is season 2 shit for some other reason?
The first season does the detective noir thing pretty well, and doesn’t deviate too far from the novel. They tried rolling the second book (Broken Angels) and the third book (Woken Furies) into one season, it didn’t work out at all.
Now I want to make an ai slop Altered Carson poster.
The aesthetics, acting, and writing seemed to take an immense dive; I was half convinced I wasn’t even watching the same show. By the time I started s2e2 I had already googled and found out that it wasn’t just me and that it doesnt get better (I tend not to search ahead of time to avoid spoilers). What a disappointment. I really liked the detective noir thing.

Thanks for the info!

I might have to check out the novels.
The same author did another similar novel called Thin Air, which you might like - it maintains that tech noir theming.
