Netflix has added a 2022 sci-fi show with 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

Earning comparisons to Blade Runner, the series has a great cast.

The animated show revolves around a bullied teen named Maddie (voiced by Katie Chang) who begins receiving messages from a mysterious stranger that claims to be her recently deceased father, David (Daniel Dae Kim).

Maddie and her mother Ellen (Rosemarie DeWitt) start to suspect that David's consciousness has been uploaded to the cloud.

This storyline intersects with others, one of which is about another teenager named Caspian (Paul Dano) whose parents are hiding a massive secret from him.

There is also a plot line involving the kidnapping of a brilliant young tech engineer named Chanda (Raza Jaffrey).

Based on a series of short stories by Ken Liu, the voice cast of Pantheon also includes Aaron Eckhart, Chris Diamantopoulos, Kevin Durand, Maude Apatow, Michael Kelly, Ron Livingston, Scoot McNairy, Taylor Schilling and William Hurt.

The show first aired on AMC+ in the States, with it running for two seasons - the first of which has now been added to Netflix.

Upon release, Pantheon earned rave reviews from critics - with it being praised for its intelligent and timely story, its thriller elements, its emotional voice performances and its gorgeous animation.

As such, the show's first season holds a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score.

You can read a sample of the glowing reviews for this batch of episodes below:

The Hollywood Reporter: "It’s a portrait of a rapidly changing world that takes care to document the emotional carnage left in its wake, to gripping, troubling and ultimately quite moving effect."
