    • Trivia
      Every season 1 episode is named after a classic film noir.
    • Goofs
      In the opening credits of season 2, it says 'based on the book by Richard K Morgan', and the only other clue to hang this on is that the production is called Altered Carbon; however, season 2 is actually based on an amalgam of the books entitled Broken Angels and Woken Furies, respectively, and does not cover any material described in the book entitled Altered Carbon.

    Watch first season
    First season is great fun. Actors do a great job selling characters, action is fun, atmosphere and aesthetics are top notch.

    Second season... Exists. Mackie didn't even bother acting.
