Have you ever thought about what the future holds for humans? Jordan Peele and Charlie Sanders seem to surely do, but with a twist. The executive producers have come up with an excellent premise for an anthology in the form of the upcoming six-episode 'Weird City', which is a strange, yet entertaining view of the future.
