I had a similar view. I thought the show was brilliant. A rare perfect gem in television. I thought the book was okay, but the author plotting never seemed to quite land with me. I'm planning on reading her newest book, though.

Dark is the better show and has a very satisfying three season arc. 1899's only season was great. I'm not sure it was a standout for me in a season of truly excellent TV, but I really did like the season. I'd watch Dark. If you want a standout sci-fi series from 2022 that didn't get a lot of...

For funsies, watch the last five minutes of the final episode.

Well I spoke (wrote) too soon. Netflix just cancelled it. I guess it shows that even Netflix's darling creators aren't immune to studio decisions. I still suggest pivoting to Dark, though!

My recollection is that following the tremendous success of the first two seasons of Dark (I'm not alone in calling it the best streaming show ever), creators Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar were given some bonkers 10-season order from Netflix. They were told they can split those 10 seasons over...

I think a better use of your time might be to watch the first three episodes of Dark instead of plowing through three more episodes of 1899. If you end up liking Dark, finish that series and then continue 1899 (because I think if you like Dark you'll like where 1899 goes). You'll see I gave sort...

I just finished the first season. Holy... ... ... ... ... ... crap! Crazy show very much in the vein of Dark. This did not go anywhere near where I thought it was going to go. I loved it.

Friendly reminder that all 8 episodes are available for streaming today. I'm planning on watching the first two or three episodes tonight, and finishing up this weekend (going to The Menu tomorrow night).

I don't like when people say "keep watching it's gets better!" If a show isn't working for you it's probably best to cut and run. However, in this rare case the show's pivotal episode for most people is episode 3. There's a particular sequence where it all finally clicks into place for a lot of...

Resubscribe for a month, binge this and binge Dark, and then cancel :)

The trailer for Netflix's upcoming show, "1899" was released today. All I need to know is that it's from the creators of "Dark", which in my estimate and without hyperbole is the best show on any streaming platform ever. The trailer looks great. I'm 100% in on 1899.
