Down to Watch is back in business, and that business is refrigerrr...robotics, actually! Dan and Raul followed Rashida Jones into a tragic mystery centered around the bot-building company Imatech and her late husband's classified research in the new AppleTV+ series Sunny. American ex-pat misanthrope Suzie deals with life in Japan (as well as in a near future where robot helpers abound) after a plane crash has taken the lives of her Japanese engineer husband, Masa, and their young son. As the world around her tries to help assuage her pain with culturally unfamiliar customs, clues begin to drop about Masa's secret life that led to him leaving her with a bespoke AI robot, Sunny. The company is hiding killer robots, her mother-in-law is busy destroying clues, and now the Yakuza is involved? This show is wrapping cool music, bouncy sci-fi concepts, and dark humor around an investigation into grief processing, and we're here to talk about it!
