Part family drama, part warning of things to come, HBO's miniseries Years and Years presents a vision of the future that's both horrifying and unnervingly plausible. This short but harrowing sci-fi series offers up a smart examination of the dark side of social media, the rise of a divisive celebrity turned politician (played with glee by Emma Thompson), and a bleak depiction of what immigration laws could mean for thousands of refuges. Through it all, the series stays grounded in the story of a singular family as they're swept along as the world marches closer to certain doom with each episode.
