From just the first episode - at first I was thinking - great cinematography, extremely atmospheric, a bit slow. At the end of the first episode I was thinking, 'What the Actual Fuck'

LOL.

I hope the rest of it is as entertaining.

First episode was damn good! Hope this continues. I have a lot of faith given the creators.

So, unlike a lot of shows, they released the whole season at once. This will be binged. I smiled when I saw the captain. The actor played "The Stranger" in Dark.

I at first thought they were on the Prometheus. This will be fun trying to figure out what the actual fuck is going on. The only thing I have is that this is in somebody's mind. I kind of hope that is not the case.

This is the most mystery box show i've ever watched. Seriously it out mystery boxed Lost somehow. What is did in the process however was make mystery boxes work amazingly well. I have no real complaints about the show other the the intro music. There is something to be said when the intro music matches the tone of the show and Dark's did it perfectly. White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane is a fine song, but it has no place on this show. Its really weird too because the rest of the score of the show is as good as Dark's ever was.

Oh and don't watch this dubbed, its mulilingual and its all the better for it.

Is it just a one season deal? Or do you just mean it does a good job answering the questions posed during the first season?

I was quite satisfied with how it wrapped up but if they wanted to do a second season its very possible and works within the confines of the show and what you have seen.

I trust these creators to make it work. They want to make this multi seasons like Dark if Netflix wants more, and I really hope they do.

Looking at the RT scores for this this appears to be suffering from critics who haven't watched it all. Its gets better and more fucked as it goes, stick with it.

I just watched the first episode. Clearly a song from the 60s doesn't fit the time era the show takes place in

I can only assume the choice was intentional in order to foreshadow the plot development or similar
