What Brought 'Sense8' Back--and What Killed It in the First Place

I have a hard time recommending science fiction TV shows to anyone. Not because I don't watch and enjoy an inordinate amount of sci-fi (I do), but because when it comes to television, I'm John Wick levels of cursed. Everything I love--the stuff that's weird and complicated and doesn't just export Earth's injustices into space--is doomed. Today is a bright spot for the fans still wallpapering the internet with GIFs of Firefly, The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and all other genre shows cancelled but not forgotten. The Wachowski siblings' Sense8, a sci-fi drama that Netflix canceled last summer after two seasons, is returning today with a two-hour finale.
