Season 3 of upload was good.
Pros: I like Nathan & Nora together as a cute couple. And how it continues developing each relationship further. I liked how cleverly having the same actor (from the same cast) able to play the same character by doing double duty. Everyone does banter a lot which I like and I was intrigued what will season 4 have in-store after the results of this finale of this season.
Cons: The company freon wasn’t shown as that much of a threat. Why don’t they drop all 8 episodes already on prime video and this season overall didn’t feel as deep and enjoyable compared to season 2 of Loki.
