Britbox: Utopia BBC Version

The original Utopia was brilliant.
By John Amato — February 5, 2025

I've been a massive fan of the international cinema marketplace since I first saw Prime Suspect on PBS in 1992. Before the streaming explosion, I bought an all-regent DVD player and DVDs from Amazon UK of programs not being televised in the States.

Utopia was a visually stunning series with rich, unique characters that unfolded a terrifying conspiracy.

It's streaming on BritBox, which has a lot of great-quality content. The American version on Prime was a pale remake.

Open thread.
