It could have been so much more (no spoilers)
(English is not my main language! - sorry)
I’m a bitch for Groundhog Day kind of stories so this was right off my alley
The beginning idea is incredibly clever and well thought out… for the first few episodes
This series major flaw is exactly this: at one point the story gets completely lost. It changes so radically that it’s impossible not to think that when they started recording they still didn’t write the ending .
It’s rushed and so different from how the story began considering also that it feels (especially in the last episode) like we - the viewer - are missing some important scenes.
I cannot think of another adjective if not “rushed” for this story because at one point it truly feels like they are trying just to end it, and I have a theory for it: the story was too complex
Don’t get wrong I LOVED how complex it was and if they made this story longer i would have 100% watched it in it’s entirety, but the problem resides exactly here, it wasn’t long. They had to condense an incredibly elaborated story in few episodes, that’s why they completely lost it at one point
Another problem were the characters
the main love-lead is as plain a plank of wood and the side characters are everything but consistent
Now i know I criticised this series a lot but even after everything I physically cannot hate it or even just dislike it. Maybe it’s because of the actors (i loved them in 2moons at the time) or maybe it’s because the plot idea was so cool that i refuse to think that they fucked it up, but i cannot not like this series
Final thought? Watch it
I think it’s still an experience that needs to be done
