It is an ambitious science fiction story, but it makes room for the more intimate moments of humanity. Read full review

“Extrapolations” could be so much more than just a series imparting a message. The show is at its best when the rich ensemble gets to not proselytize but instead embody real people caught up in the push and pull of the fate of the planet. When the show operates at its highest level, it’s hard for the viewers not to see themselves in them. Read full review

There’s a lot to admire about the show’s ambitions, even if they’re not fully realized. ... I like that “Extrapolations” is asking serious questions. It’s not a hectoring approach but one designed to be entertaining, its themes delivered in a gleaming package filled with boldface names. Read full review

True, “Extrapolations” has its heart in the right place but its pedantic volume rises just like the sea level and all but overwhelms the characters and the drama itself, spinning the whole enterprise sadly right off its storytelling axis. Read full review

Scott Z. Burns’ AppleTV+ climate crisis anthology series squanders an urgent premise and star-studded cast with preachy drama and one dimensional characters. Read full review

Extrapolations is draining in all the wrong ways: It’s dull and disappointing from the start to its bitter, seemingly full-circle finish. Read full review

Tedious. Predictable. Harpy. Unimaginative. Shrill. I could go on. What a waste of talent. Don't waste your time too.
