Murderbot (S01 E1-5) | Humans Are the Worst

Paul and Chris Weitz's Apple TV adaptation of Martha Wells' series "The Murderbot Diaries" sets itself apart from the books from the beginning through shifts in tone, character, and more, but how well are the changes working? In episode 352, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they react to Alexander Skarsgård's performance as everyone's favorite SecUnit, learn to love the goofballs humans Murderbot is trying to protect, unpack the changes that push the show into more of a true comedy than the books, and theorize on what's to come in the second half of the season. Also, they include a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Ink to Film is attending WorldCon 2025 in Seattle where they will be interviewing Martha Wells in their first ever live show! Join them on 8/15 @ 4:30PM.
