cried my eyes out. (this is my at least 10th watch now)

were near the end again 🫩

I just realized: Sun's brother sent in those fake prison guards to kill her, right? But if he could do that, couldn't they just help free her instead? I know this is after he kills their dad and Sun swears revenge on him, but why didn't he think to do it before? Like "Dad wait, I think I know a way we can save Sun, save face, and I don't kill you" I know it's a bit of a nit pick, but it still felt like it was worth pointing out.

EDIT: To everyone saying that he's a selfish asshole, I agree, but would it not still be in a selfish asshole's best interest to be on good terms with a potential enemy rather than provoke the one person who could destroy your whole life?

The hyper empathy, the truth telling, the deep pleasure, etc.

My brain chemistry will never be the same omg 😳 this was a show was told to watch about 10 years ago, and putting it into perspective that it was released after gay marriage was BARELY legalized… this show was SO ahead of its time!! I feel like it represents so many things too, and they ended it really well for cramming like 3 more seasons of material into 2.5 hours!

I added the spoiler tag just in case but one of my favorite moments are when the cluster all appear together and they’re all having fun and being happy even with them going through shit it’s just so cute, or when they’re all running together like they’re all hunting xD

“I feel you” and “nothing matters when we’re dancing” has been stuck in my head for the past week. And “what’s up” has a whole new meaning to me too. LOOOOVE THIS SHOWWWW

Just finished the series i afraid it wouldn't stick the landing because I heard it got cancelled in the middle but it was definitely better than I thought though the antagonist got sidelined I'm definitely happy with the happy ending so I can sleep peacefully tonight definitely a feel good show is there any other shows you guys recommend where the characters have this kind of bond and banter that was definitely my favorite aspect

I am working on putting together a new limited series Sense8 podcast (original post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Sense8/comments/1vu20bz/comment/p5aeclx/?context=3 )

The way I am picturing this podcast is that it will have a couple of sections to it:

1. I have a friend who had never seen Sense8 before and I want to open each episode with his reactions/questions/predictions for each episode. I thought it would be a fun way to experience the enjoyment of watching it again for the first time through someone else’s eyes

2. I want to go into deep dives. This will be for those of us who have watched the show many times. I have now seen the show somewhere between 10-12 times and would love to discuss it from scientific/psychological/other standpoints. I really enjoy looking at the episodes through the lens of “okay if sensates were real, how could we make this work scientifically?”

3. Maybe including some world expansion stuff - this idea I’m still flushing out. But I’ve read books that are mentioned in the show, I’ve visited places from the show. So maybe just a little 5-10 minute section of bringing the show to life from that aspect.

But the real goal is that I would like to have this podcast be community-built. I want us to use our sense8 network here on this subreddit to bring the podcast to life. I don’t have a lot of experience in this and would love help.

So here is the first bit I need help with: the name for the podcast. What do you think we should name it? I was thinking something like-
• Sense8: A Psycellium Podcast
• Sense8: A Podcast for Sensorium

TDLR: What should I name the Sense8 podcast?

I have already gotten feedback that AI is not good to use. So I am doing my best to have this be fully organic. Please forgive any typos. 🙏🏻

Also, if there is anything else you can help with for this podcast, please let me know in the comments. (Cover art for the podcast, editing, topic ideas, book recommendations, etc)

This is a wonderful breath of fresh air after having been burnt out by tv shows. I heard it was cancelled but was it after s2 or did they know beforehand so they can wrap up the story and also the final episode is a movie?? Is it included under s2 or under different name

I’ve watched Sense8 probably 10–12 times at this point, and I’ve been seriously considering starting a podcast about it. 😂 (I know that there are already some out there and have listened to them.)

So I have to ask my fellow Sense8 people: would you actually listen to a podcast dedicated to this show even though it’s been over for a few years now?

And if so, what would you want to hear? Deep dives into the characters and relationships? The psychology/philosophy behind the cluster? LGBTQ+ themes? Symbolism and details you notice after multiple rewatches? Behind-the-scenes stuff? Episode discussions? Or something completely different?

I have a lot of thoughts about this show and I’m curious whether there’s an audience for them. 😂 If you’d listen, what would make you excited to tune in?

I should hope fellow watchers of Sense8 would recognise the view.

Somewhat less green thanks to a scorching summer but still...

No party like a Sense8 party! 8 screen shots

Happy Birthday to the 8/8 cluster

Happiest birthday my babies.

I know it’s a couple days early but I really wanted to wish the Sense8s a Happy Birthday!!!!

I just started the show again. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched this amazing production. Love, love, love it!

Besides the show and movie, is there any other media content for the universe? Comics etc. Finding this subreddit has rekindled my sense8 thirst.

I get that they collaborated with BPO to capture sensates in order to protect Lila and her cluster. I also understand why she wanted to kill Wolfgang after he rejected her offer to create a sensate sanctuary. I'm assuming she wanted to tie up any loose ends after revealing her plan to him.

Where she/they start losing me is after the Whispers and Wolfgang exchange. Lila keeps Whispers alive so the exchange with the Chairman can continue... okay, whatever. It would've made more sense to kill Whispers right there since it was already established that his death would cripple BPO (unless she wasn't aware of BPO inner dynamics that Wolfgang's cluster knew). I would assume if she also killed Whispers then Wolfgang's cluster would leave her alone.

Then Jonas kills the Chairman through another sensate, and Lila STILL wants to save Whispers? She completely lost me. She clearly didn't like BPO or Whispers, so why is she going this far to protect him? Am I missing something else?

Hi, I'm new here. I remember hearing about this show and added it to my list before forgetting about it. I was reminded of it because I took a quiz of what fictional character I was most like and I got a 95% match for Riley. I knew next to nothing about her or the show as a whole but the descriptions intrigued me, so I watched. Now I'm sitting here not knowing what to do with my life. I get super attached to characters, so when a show like this ends, It's almost like I need to grieve. I wish we had more.

Anyway, I don't have a question or anything, just looking to connect in some small way with others that have been where I'm at, as related to this show. Now that I think about it, instead of trying to read back through years of posts, I'm wondering if there are run-away favorite characters or if appreciation is pretty evenly spread out.

Rewatched sense8 & finding out in the season finale that the secret drone assassin program was a cover for the secret consciousness immortality plan is making my ears buzzzzz‼️ I watched it in 2015-2018 and I haven’t watched it in years so maybe I didn’t pick it up

hasn’t it been a huge conspiracy that the elites have been tranferring consciousness in order to be immortal/avoid death?! Is this why Netflix cancelled sense8?! Because the wachowskis were telling the truth again?!

Someone tell me they remember that short snippet on the news the day QE2 died where they said she wasn’t able to transfer in time?!

And do you have a preference between S1 or S2 Capheus?

So at least to my mind, no one in the August 8th cluster reads to me as neurodivergent (and if you think otherwise, I'd love to hear why), so I'm wondering, as someone who is neurodivergent, what the experience of being in a cluster with different neurotypes would be like. Would ND mates be able to borrow energy from neurotypical mates in order to mask more effectively for example? Would a burnout and/or meltdown ripple through the entire cluster?
