Season 1 Review: Blade Runner Black Lotus amounts to a worthy addition to the Blade Runner series that’s as much of an entertaining individual story on its own as it is a prequel further embellishing the groundwork for the world glimpsed in Blade Runner 2049. Read full review

Season 1 Review: In its first two episodes, Blade Runner: Black Lotus is already showing tons of promise, which will hopefully make up for its less-than-stellar character designs. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The main issue with Blade Runner: Black Lotus is that there isn’t really a compelling hook here aside from the Blade Runner bit in the title. It’s a competently assembled tie-in to the larger mythology, but, at least in these early episodes, it’s not clear if there’s much to it beyond that. Read full review
