Altered Carbon is an American science fiction television series created by Laeta Kalogridis and based on the 2002 novel of the same title by English author Richard K. Morgan.
It premiered on Netflix on February 2, 2018.
The series takes place over 350 years in the future, in the year 2384. In the future, a person's memories have been decanted into "cortical stacks", storage devices of alien design which have been reverse engineered, duplicated en masse, and surgically inserted into the vertebrae at the back of the neck. Physical bodies, called "sleeves", are disposable vessels that can accept any "stack". Takeshi Kovacs, a political operative with mercenary skills, wakes up 250 years after his previous sleeve is terminated. He is given the choice to either spend the rest of time in prison for his crimes, or to help solve the murder of Laurens Bancroft, one of the wealthiest men in the settled worlds. Takeshi was the sole surviving soldier of those defeated in an uprising against the new world order 250 years prior.
This could have some promise O.o

I'm at episode 4 and so far it's keeping its promises. Pretty good series IMHO.
I like the AI hotel 
I just finished this last night. I really enjoyed it, and it reminded me how absolutely in love I am with Dichen Lachman. 
Hoping we get a second season, and I’m probably going to give the books a go now.
looks interesting. Reminds me of Blade Runner/Ghost in the Shell and even bioshock.
I like their sense of humour

Yeah, same kind of spirit/genre, even if some aspects are quite different.
Have you watched? How did you find it?
