So s-l-o-w. This could have been shown in 4 episodes instead of 20! Worst thing ever to come "Out of Africa". Jumping between "verses" is an interesting concept - in view of theoretical physicists propounding existence of infinite number of universes existing alongside our own. Gamma verse was an Arcadian paradise with beautiful vistas and beautiful people - even O1 Boxer was pleasant here (until his father, Brian Boxer, ventured here and killed O1's family) Beta verse, where most of the action takes place, is a reflection of our current state - countryside, city, buildings, people like ourselves (except for the nasty Vex-Cor corporation and its minions). Alpha verse is a futuristic nightmare of where we are headed - polluted city (a la Blade Runner), big corporations (especially Vex-Cor) running things (Vex-Cor even try stealing resources from Beta verse, viz. water, to replace the shortages in Alpha verse, stating "it will be a better future for all"), citizens classified into hierarchical groups (e.g. a "C3" is not allowed to own property). This is possibility the series most "realistic" message.
