Overview

In the year 2089, an alien race stalks the land in towering machines known as Tripods. They have taken over the earth and enslaved mankind with a mind-controlling device, ceremoniously implanted at adolescence. Will Parker, desperate to escape this ritual, leaves the village with his cousin, Henry and attempts to link up with the human resistance movement.

Roughly 12h 30m to watch every episode. This is an estimate: 25 episodes at the typical episode runtime of 30 minutes.
