When is utopia on channel 4 repeated

Perhaps things would have been different if Utopia had come just a few years later, or it had been picked up by Netflix for a direct continuation, as Black Mirror was. Yet Utopia was unexpectedly influential despite its relative obscurity. Its effect on countless subsequent TV and film productions is testament to its merit. Such was the faith in the series from those that saw it, that shortly after the axing, HBO ordered a nine-million dollar US adaptation of Utopia headed by David Fincher.

After lingering in developmental limbo for several years, the US-remake was finally resurrected by Amazon Studios. How well a small series that was so dependent on its British context may translate to a mass-market American show is yet to be seen.

The genius of Utopia is deep and difficult to summarize. This is what a series feels like when it has involved the full creative potential of everyone, at every level of production. Watch the full original series on Amazon Prime before the US remake is released later this year.
