The title comes from the article, but I agree with some of these changes. It’s making for an engaging show that also feels modern.

    The big time jumps do make it a difficult story. The names of the people on the page are always changing and you don’t get true character development or drama.

    The show doesn’t execute this well, it tries to avoid it. It bends over backward to invent multiple ways for the characters to defeat death. Cryo sleep. Digital consciousness. Synthetic bodies. Clones. Has there been any outright time travel yet? If not I’m sure there will be.

      That’s a good point. The continuation of key characters over death-defying time periods and then their inevitable interactions does feel pretty contrived.
