Haven't seen any chatter here a out the new Murderbot show.

My wife and I are absolutely loving it so far, feels like a really faithful and respectful adaptation to the books, with most of the changes being positive!

Anyone else watching this?

The series is the next book on my list, and I flew from them first time. Looking forwards to rereading (I never normally reread). :-)

Oh that's fair, I also flew through all of the books sans the most recent one which I haven't been able to bring myself to finish the last one even on my rereads (murderbot has become my sanctuary moon).

I will say that pre ART modifications people with extensive experience and knowledge of secunits would have likely been able to clock MB as a SecUnit (part of the reason WHY they went through with the modifications given where they were heading)
