As the first episode shows, this also leads to some bizarre happenings: No one is allowed to have sexual relations with the same partner for an elongated time, and, well, orgies seem to be a pretty standard form of recreation.īut another way that people in New London-the man-made society that Brave New World depicts-get through things is by continually popping a drug called "Soma." Soma might sound familiar because, well, Huxley's source material is nearly 100 years old and it's been referenced quite a bit.
Based on the 1932 Aldous Huxley novel of the same name, Brave New World tells the story of a future utopian society where monogamy, family, and privacy are all outlawed to make for a society that functions without issues. It's a big time for NBC/Universal, which just launched a major new streaming platform-Peacock-with a major new sci-fi show of it's own, Brave New World.
