Okay, I stumbled upon this mind bending series last summer on Netflix after I had completed Stranger Things. I’m a super geek when it comes to Quantum Physics and also an avid reader of Stephen Hawkins. I have watched a few awesome movies on alternate realities/time travel before (‘Coherence’ is one of my favourites in the genre, thanks to Schrodingers’ Cat Theory) but man, Dark is unlike any other I have ever come across. How can be someone’s mother be also her daughter? I mean, perhaps that’s it’s the linearity of time that separates us from our ancestors. It’s a series that shall stay in my mind latched for years to come. Can’t wait for Season 3 already!

OK, so I've been into watching Sci-Fi, mind bending and metaphysical stuff for long. On Netflix, I stumbled upon 'Dark' and 'The OA' out of the blue. While I loved the first one to the fullest, 'The OA' caught my attention for its weirdly-smart-and-poignant writing. I have been waiting for the second season of 'THE OA' and honestly, I was into it as it was so intensely rich in the connection. But, yes the ending where it goes beyond your TV Screens and is now a part IRL right as you're watching, is something that every great at first, but clumsy at the end TV show /Movie has done before. And, as a viewer of such intricate stories I can't take rushing off as an end to this really different and refreshing series.
