Former hostage negotiator Mara Kint takes a job saving people whose minds are lost in a virtual reality simulation named Reverie. In the process, Kint begins to work through a personal tragedy in her own past.

Psychological Warnings

  • The company Onira-Tech has an AI program named Dylan, whose research and tracking capabilities may not sit well with certain paranoia related triggers.
  • The implanted device in Mara Kint’s brain that allows her to join in on other people’s virtual reality experiences inside Reverie may set off microchip implantation triggers.
  • Subsequent episodes also present a bleed over from the virtual reality space to reality as hallucinations (example: Mara sees and hears her niece), which may also set off certain hallucination related or unreality triggers.

Within the show, this bleed over state is called derealization, but experiences attributed to it may not align entirely with the pre-existing term derealization.[1]

Cancellation

Reverie ran for ten episodes from 30 May 2018 to 8 August 2018, and NBC did not renew it for a second season.[2]
