It's OK -- they bought the rights to the concept and butchered the original 2012 Swedish version, appropriately titled 'Real' Humans ( https://trakt.tv/shows/real-humans ) - "Äkta Människor". It wasn't adapted from a book, the creator (Lars Lundström) developed it as an original screenplay for Swedish television: www.svt.se/akta-manniskor/

The original was outstanding, both seasons -- by the end of the 1st season of the remake, there isn't anything from the original plot -- it's been simplified and homogenized. The original, with English subtitles, can be found on Vimeo. As they've completely changed the story, no need to worry about spoilers... ;-)

I'll have to watch the Swedish series now that I've finished this version, but I really don't see the point of comparing the two as you have. "Synth" as short for "Synthetic" works just as well as "Hubot" does as short for "Human-bot" (which would make it "hew-bot", not "hoo-bot").<br /> <br /> There are a lot of elements to like in this remake, and I'm sure there will be just as many in the Swedish series.

@dgw FYI -- the original is Swedish, they say 'who-bot', now 'heu-bot'... As you haven't seen the original, you can't really comment on a comparison.

@sam9s I quote: "It wasn't adapted from a book, the creator (Lars Lundström) developed it as an original screenplay for Swedish television: www.svt.se/akta-manniskor/"<br /> <br /> So what book you're talking about?
