    Delivering bleakness and black comedy in distilled form via stories that rarely last more than fifteen minutes, it’s like Black Mirror for the ADD-addled video game crowd. ... Love, Death & Robots is at its finest when it’s short, sweet and satirically nasty.

It communicated this through effective action, simple desire and a careful balance of foretelling and revelation, while the art style gave my mind sufficient interest to parallel-process. The result was a very engaging experience that married emotional response and thought; I found it extremely well-done.    … Full Review »

It is like an art gallery and a time capsule of science fiction ideas both new and old that express an interstellar level of imagination. Binging this show kept me on my toes, never knowing what I was going to see or feel next and had my brain and eyes stapled to the television.
