The event series of the month on Netflix is ??released this Thursday, March 21, 2024. But from what time can you discover the 8 episodes of the first season?
It’s a series that was particularly anticipated by Netflix subscribers, but also by specialist observers of the small screen. The 3-Body Problem is finally released on the streaming platform this Thursday, March 21, 2024. Time change requires in the United States, it is at 8:01 a.m. that the 8 episodes of the first season will be visible in France, and not 9:01 a.m. as users are accustomed to.
And it’s a godsend, since it’s a program awaited at the turn for several reasons. First of all, The 3-Body Problem is the adaptation of the first volume of the “hard SF” trilogy written by Chinese author Liu Cixin. It was considered unadaptable because of the extremely specific scientific terms (the very title of the series refers to a concept of orbital mechanics), but also for its scale (the plot takes place over several centuries), before big names from the small screen took hold of it: first Alexander Woo, who had worked on the vampire series True Blood, but also David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. Their names certainly mean something to you, since they are the showrunners of the series Game of Thrones.
On paper, therefore, the series is expected. And it must be said that the plot of the 3-Body Problem is also enough to keep Netflix subscribers in suspense. It begins in the middle of the Cultural Revolution in China in 1967. A brilliant astrophysicist makes a decision that will completely change the future of humanity decades later. In 2024, the laws of nature begin to crumble and a new threat from the far reaches of the universe looms over the planet. Scientists then decide to team up to confront it.
The Netflix series then proves to be very mysterious and captivating, without putting aside the spectacular and impressive aspect of the staging. Despite flaws, particularly in the writing of its protagonists (invented for the small screen adaptation), The 3-Body Problem remains unmissable this week in streaming. The first season is made up of 8 episodes of approximately one hour, all posted online this Thursday morning. If the audiences are there and the series is renewed by Netflix, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have already made it known that they intend to adapt the other volumes in three or four seasons.
