Partial Recall

Perhaps it was doomed from the start. Electric Dreams, a sci-fi anthology series comprised of ten episodes all based on short stories written by Philip K. Dick was released in 2017 to lukewarm reviews and little promotion. This was during the height of the cultural phenomenon surrounding Black Mirror, which was airing its fourth season at the time, and comparisons to the dark and dystopian science fiction staple were inevitable. By all accounts, Electric Dreams could not distinguish itself from the more successful and well-regarded competition.
