Snowpiercer (2020)

One of the best shows on TV, imo! It says a lot about society and the world we live in today. The only living things left on Earth are all on one giant train. It’s a fragile ecosystem and you would think that after the world was basically destroyed that the survivors would have a little solidarity but NOPE! They go back to the familiar old ways of a class system where the rich live in luxury and the middle/lower classes are the ones that keep the train running. There are a lot of interesting character arcs and some powerful moments. Eventually things go off the rails!! (just a pun, not a spoiler :P)

I’ve read the other comments and just wanted to say to any new watchers that it is NOT a cop show. I thought the same thing, that it was just going to end up being some cop procedural where they solve different train crimes, but that’s not the case.

Also, this show cannot be compared to the movie. I haven’t read the book, but I am pretty sure it’s completely different. The setting, backstory, and some names are shared but other than that the show is it’s own thing. The THEME of class struggle is what they all really share.
