Netflix Focuses On “Love Death & Robots” As Life’s Only Certainties
Fall in love.
Tim Miller (Terminator) and David Fincher (God) have teamed up to create a new 18-episode animated anthology series called Love Death & Robots. The concept doesn’t sound all too dissimilar to what we just got with Adult Swim with The Shivering Truth with episodes timed between 5 and 15 minutes that span different genres like sci-fi, fantasy, horror and dark comedy. A major differentiator is the fact that almost like TripTank, the producers will leverage international talent employing a number of different animation styles ranging from 2D or photo-real 3D CGI.
Here are some screen shots released by Netflix that should give you a good idea of we’re up against.
Some are comedies. Some are tragedies. All of them are incredibly demented and definitely unlike most animation out there. pic.twitter.com/KGbgZtMGfp

There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
