The only slight issue I have - and it is a minor niggle, but I've noticed - is that from a bit of dialogue it must be set at least in 1985, but most of the styling and fashion is (very) early 80s, not mid-80s. I remember the 80s quite well so it's a bit jarring.

Finished Dark Matter last week too: enjoyed it a lot, and liked how they ended it: doesn't really feel like they need another season of it, but TV execs being TV execs, I guess they'll make one.
...which reminds me, anyone got any idea when the next season of Severance is due to drop?
I've watched up to the point where Donny has his meltdown in the stand-up comedy competition. I still think it's quite a brave dramatization in terms of reinforcing certain stereotypes about fat women. The fact that it's true to real events does not mitigate that, I think. Imagine a racial minority character that behaved according to a racial stereotype. Yes, you could make a true-to-life dramatization of this character's life, but there would be quite a few people, especially here in the US, who would not take kindly to the choice of subject -matter.
I'm not saying that producers should shy away from potentially offensive material, and, in fact, it's quite refreshing when someone does take a risk. It is noticeable, though, in these quick-to-be-offended times.
