In a world where humans can be uploaded into a virtual afterlife, perhaps it's not surprising that they remain as stubborn as ever.
The trailer for the second season of Prime Video's Upload features talking animals, flying hot dogs and more than a little heartbreak to go around.
From the creator of The Office and Parks and Recreation Greg Daniels, the show features a technologically sophisticated future where humans can be "uploaded" into a virtual afterlife.
However, it's all automated grocery stores and holograms until Nathan (Robbie Amell) is visited by his ex-girlfriend Ingrid (Allegra Edwards) in an attempt to strengthen their relationship. But—dun, dun, dun—he's still in love with his customer service agent Nora (Andy Allo).
Oh, humans. We'll never get it right.
The second season will also unveil the town of Lakeview's newest in-app digital baby program, called "prototykes," with "other satirical glimpses of the technological advances and headaches to come," per the description.
As the trailer shows, the afterlife is still regrettably littered with "very difficult Karens" and old men who "like the rollback of environmental laws." However, in Lakeview, you can just instantly clone yourself in order to deal with them. Must be nice.
In addition, those without influence are determined to "hold the greedy, powerful people accountable" for the better of all society. It looks like some things never change, even after being scientifically transported to another realm.
The first season of Upload was Prime Video's No. 1 half-hour comedy and features an ensemble cast including Kevin Bigley, Zainab Johnson, Josh Banday and Andrea Rosen.
The seven-episode second season of Upload takes us to the Metaverse March 11th on Prime Video.
