It certainly has the happiest ending. For reals.

For it to be happiest it has to be even a tiny bit happy, and it's not. Its ending crushed me more than any of the others.

The third episode probably has the most hopeful ending.

15MM reads pretty coherently as a critique on capitalism, where acting alone the most Bing can achieve is to slightly improve his own situation and exist in a better gilded cage. His personal rebellion being perfectly integrated into the framework of social control is just so grim. You can imagine frustrated people on the bikes spending loads of credits on the iconic glass shard for their Dopple.

Yeah 15MM seemed pretty loving marxist. Every action including emotional outbursts and rebellion immediately commoditized... the bikes were straight up labor theory of value.

I just watched the Waldo ep for the first time, and I think the criticism of it I read before is no longer valid considering the last year and a half of American politics.
