Amazon's Best Original Series In 2020 Is Renewed For Season 2
Greg Daniel's futuristic comedy is coming back for another round.
While we've all been hit with delays from movies and TV shows, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, there are still plenty of shining diamonds in the world of streaming services, like Amazon's Upload. The recently released series from Greg Daniels (one of the creators of The Office) has now been renewed for Season 2.
If you missed out on the new series, drop what you're doing and watch it now. Just days after the release of Season 1, the announcement for a Season 2 comes, but no episode count for the follow-up run has been revealed at this time.
"I am thrilled to continue a great relationship with Amazon Studios and this wonderful cast and find out what happens next to Nora and Nathan and Ingrid and their 2033 world," said Daniels in a statement. "With this news, I can stop drawing my season two flip book."
"In Upload, Greg Daniels delivered a smart, cinematic comedy crackling with intrigue and it has clearly delighted our customers who have spent a lot of time in Lakeview this past week," said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon Studios, "We know our global fans want to see the next chapter with Nathan and Nora so we are greenlighting Season Two and are excited that Greg's passion project has found such a devoted audience."
The new series takes place in 2033 and follows Nathan Brown (Robbie Amell), a man who dies in a car wreck and makes the hasty decision to upload his consciousness into a virtual world where he forms a relationship with Nora Antony (Andy Allo), an "angel" who works at the company that hosts the virtual world.
However, that's all surface level, as the show is really a satire of how far technology will eventually go, whether it's self-driving cars, virtual sex, or in-app (more like in-virtual world) purchases.
Season 1 of Upload is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
