Greg Daniels On Season 2 Of The Prime Video Series “Upload,” Future Projects & More

Upload is a sci-fi comedy series from Emmy Award-winning writer Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks & Recreation), set in a technologically-advanced future where hologram phones, 3D food printers and automated grocery stores are the norm. Most uniquely, humans can choose to be “uploaded” into a virtual afterlife. And the Prime Video series has become one of my favorite shows of the past 2 years.

In season 2 of Upload, Nathan (played by Robbie Amell) is at a crossroads in his (after) life. His ex-girlfriend Ingrid (played by Allegra Edwards) has unexpectedly arrived to Lakeview hoping to strengthen their relationship, but his heart still secretly yearns for his customer service angel Nora (played by Andy Allo). Meanwhile Nora is off the grid and involved with the anti-tech rebel group “The Ludds.” Season 2 is packed with new near-future concepts, including Lakeview’s newest in-app digital baby program called, “prototykes,” and other satirical glimpses of the technological advances and headaches to come. Round out the starring cast of Upload are Kevin Bigley as “Luke,” Zainab Johnson as “Aleesha,” Owen Daniels as “A.I. Guy,” Josh Banday as “Ivan” and Andrea Rosen as “Lucy.”

On February 16, 2022, I had the pleasure of speaking with Upload series creator Greg Daniels via Zoom, as embedded below. More on the series can be found online by clicking here, here and here.
