Netflix fans have hailed a sci-fi series on the streaming platform as a “must-watch”.
In a post on the Facebook group Netflix Bangers, which has more than three million members, one person asked whether they should take the time to watch the show.
One person replied: “You have to watch it. It’s an amazing series.”
Another said: “I love this show.”

Fans were referring to the Netflix series Snowpiecer, which focuses on planet Earth in 2026, seven years after it froze over.
One wrote: ‘One of the best series.’
Another said: “It was okay. I can’t remember where I left off, but I need to catch up.”
However, while some fans loved the show, not everyone was convinced.
One viewer wrote: “Nothing special, but watchable.”
Another admitted: “I found it difficult to watch.”
They were referring to the Netflix series Snowpiercer, which focuses on planet Earth in 2026, seven years after it froze over, meaning the last surviving humans are living on a giant train that circles the globe.
However, humanity is now struggling to coexist amid the sheer number of people and the chaos this causes on board.
Designed by eccentric billionaire Mr Wilford, the train consists of 1,001 carriages and circles the world 2.7 times a year.
Since the catastrophe, the train’s population has been rigidly divided by class, caught in a revolutionary struggle against the strictly imposed social hierarchy and the unbalanced allocation of limited resources.

It stars Jennifer Connelly as Melanie Cavill, who is the train’s announcer and head of hospitality, which means she must ensure that relationships on the train run smoothly.
Daveed Diggs plays the role of Andre Layton, a former detective turned leader of the Tail, a group of passengers who are forced onto the train without tickets and are treated poorly as a result, often with their food, water and electricity taken away.
Micky Sumner also appears, as Bess Till, a brakeman who is part of the train’s security force.
The show, which originally premiered on US network TNT in 2020, ran for three seasons before AMC ordered a fourth earlier this year, and currently airs on the network.
