In present-day Europe, astronomers detect a transmission from another galaxy and the world waits for further contact. Within days of the transmission, mankind is all but wiped out by a devastating attack. There are pockets of humanity left in the eerily deserted world and the survivors must avoid and escape the aliens bent on destroying them and everything they hold dear. A loose reimagining of H.G. Wells' 1898 novel, this third television adaptation stars Gabriel Byrne, Daisy Edgar-Jones and an ensemble supporting cast.

The show isn’t just a video-game-style thriller. Overman does a good job with the human relationships, which are marked by the anger, despair and pettiness the dire situation gives rise to. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Bruno H @RT22031426 03/05/2025 The idea of the show is good. However too much teenage drama that makes unbearable to watch. The boy Sacha is the worst actor ever with the worst performance ever. The French speaking also completely annoying. In English would be much better. See more Slick R @SlickReviewer 11/29/2024 Wow!! Season 3 is a massive improvement over seasons 1 and 2. Previous seasons had such a mediocre script. Season 3 had a great pace but previous seasons script were pretty slow. I wrote some of my complaints in the other seasons reviews. Season 3 actually starts off crazy from the get go with Bill Ward doing the unthinkable... Sure, the multi-verse storylines have been out of control for the past decade, but the writers really took their time with this season. And yes the way they "solved" the problem is completely BS and completely unrealistic but I only docked one star for that lol See more Marek L @RT96232176 08/23/2023 One of the best sci-fi series. Obviously, there are better and worser episodes, but it is worth to watch from s1e1 prologue till end in s3e8. Recommended to any fan of sci-fi! See more Michael M @RT31259868 05/14/2023 Unbearably stupid. This thing is as much about War of the Worlds as finding Nemo is about Planet of the Apes. Smfh See more Laurence S @Lazza 03/22/2023 War of the Worlds is out of this world! Like I said in my review of series 1 & 2, this is one of the best dystopian sci-fi's I've seen in a long time. It’s a grim, dark, gritty, ruthless and heartbreaking slow-burner. The introduction of the International Space Station adds an interesting dimension. Bring on season 4 please.
