Binged watched all episodes! I liked it, yes it is a bit far fetched but a decent plot.
I'm sure there are some similar oddball characters in Silicon Valley dreaming of how quantum computing can change the world (and I'm sure it will one day but just not have the ability as the one in the show!!)
I have not watched it yet, but I am curious. I'll give it a watch once I get through some other show's I've started watching.
Okay - so how to watch in the UK?

BBC!
That's my evening entertainment resolved.
this short story helped me understand some of the concepts well. Though, It's a good mind-bending read regardless.
Not available in Canada (I think).
Little similar to Westword Season 3 , there is also super computer with inteligence :)
Westword has better soundtrack :)

I've only watched Ep 1. It's pretty great so far
Art direction is awesome: music, photography, sound, colors, locations... everything!
The story and the topic itself to me are super interesing. Also the execution of all of it. Maybe the TV Show starts on a futuristic sci-fi and evolves into a... kind of morale dilema but in any case to me it's super cool. I highly recommend it.
As mentioned on some comments already, the characters are not the main focus of attention so they are not deeply developed during the story but... to me... they do a good job!
Although not my favorite it was kinda fun to watch, especially because of Nick Offerman.
The idea of what could be possible with this technology is really cool but the execution and the lack of technical detail was why it lost it's potential to be a great show for me.
I wished more shows would allow themselves to show more of the technical aspect.
Not every show can be as perfect as Mr. Robot, unfortunately ...
I thought it was a nice watch, well made with great acting. The plot was interesting and how it tied in with real concepts.
A bunch of the cast were new to me. I also had no idea Nick Offerman had that range, ie I wrongly assumed he only did comedy.
What set it apart imo was the soundtrack. Overall I enjoyed the entire vibe.
I've read quite a lot of hard sci-fi and speculative fiction lately. The whole genre is pizza to me. So Devs was a shoo-in for my watchlist as soon as I saw the first trailer. I really enjoyed seeing Offerman in a serious role, he's so much more versatile than I would have guessed. Overall, the series did a lot of things right, and the finale managed to be ambitious without venturing too far into self-parody.
There were definitely some plot holes along the way (I think Alex Garland expects audiences to ignore those in favor of the meticulously composed sets and soundscapes, and hey, I'm willing to do that). And the technological premise only reached the level of what I would call "Wikipedia-hard" science fiction. But still an enjoyable romp.
I appreciate a show with a beginning and an end. Too many good sci-fi shows end up falling apart when they have to build a plot beyond one season.
Seems like I need to watch now 🤓
Wow. Seems wonderful especially with that Ex-machina color schemes. Nick Offerman seems like he is done being the rude guy.
Couldn't stand it, stopped during the first episode which is something I rarely do
