How to watch Uploads online: Amazon Prime Show Release Date and Review

I'm looking forward to watching "Upload" online, and the day has finally arrived! This Amazon Prime Video comedy show is highly anticipated due to its excellent pedigree from Greg Daniels, creator of "The Office," "SNL," "The Simpsons," "Parks and Recreation," "King of the Hill," and more.

Now that expectations have been raised, let's take a closer look at what "Appleseed" is all about. According to early promotional materials and reviews, it will be a slightly darker "The Good Place," incorporating some of Black Mirror's "San Junipero" episodes.

The series takes place in the year 2033, where technology has advanced to the point where you can go to any afterlife you want simply by uploading your consciousness. Oh, and that afterlife is a digital realm, just like letting your mind live on your favorite island in Animal Crossing.

In this series, Robbie Amell plays Nathan. Nathan is a programmer, working hard to sell a big project, when he is mortally injured in a car accident. Since the show has a strong satirical aspect, the car was -- you guessed it -- a self-driving car. [But Nathan chooses to die when his girlfriend Ingrid (Allegra Edwards) tells him that his soul will be given the opportunity to move to Lakeview, a country club in the afterlife. And therein lies a series of stories about how Lakeview was not the ideal world he had hoped for.

If you are away from home and in one of the few areas where Amazon Prime is not available, you don't have to miss this new series; with a VPN (Virtual Private Network) you can easily watch the final season wherever you are.

Our pick for best VPN is ExpressVPN. It meets the VPN needs of most users, offering excellent compatibility with most devices and impressive connection speeds. It's also affordable at $12.95 per month. (Signing up for longer periods, such as 6 months or a year, further reduces the cost.)

It's even easier than uploading to Dropbox. Virtually everyone has access to Amazon Prime Video and can watch uploads online starting May 1. Prime Video is included in Amazon Prime with a 30-day free trial. If you are traveling and Prime Video is not available in your area, you may want to check out the section above on how to stream Upload using a VPN.

Hollywood Reporter critic Daniel Fienberg has seen Upload as we have, comparing it to "The Good Place" throughout. However, while he thinks it "probably won't be as good as The Good Place," he admits that "there are plenty of laughs and thought-provoking ideas."

In Rolling Stone, Alan Sepinwall rated "Uploaded" 3 stars out of 5. He commented that "once you get past the exposition-heavy 45-minute first episode, the rest is quick and almost likable," and that "moments of inspiration are regular."

William Hughes of the AV Club said, "The show's biggest drawback is that it tries to make three series at once that are very different in quality: an excellent imaginative sci-fi satire, a reasonably sweet romantic comedy, and a rather flat mythology-arc thriller. The latter is not so much a complete drag on the show, but it definitely gets in the way of its best showcase, the belly-laughing pitch-black laughs."[19
