Amazing episode and superb acting from John Turturro. I audibly gasped a couple times, easily the best new TV I have seen in a while.

It was absolutely beautiful, no question. The acting is incredible as always, too.

But I do not like the pacing this season. Season one was very steady and purposeful, building slowly to the climax in the last couple episodes. This season started even more frantic than the finale, and has been all over the place since. The events of this episode feel rushed. They feel like inevitable outcomes to what's been set up, but without the escalation in-between.

Still loving this season, but I think I liked S1 more so far.

Season 1 was one of the strongest seasons of television I have seen in the last ten years. I think the pacing of season 2 isn't that bad but I do see what your saying for sure. Regardless, I'm genuinely pleased with this show, it's refreshing to know that sci-fi shows don't need to have robots or space ships to really play to the strengths of the genre.

I'd recommend Dark if you want another sci-fi show that's different. It's a little closer to the usual sci-fi with time stuff, god particles, and other similar tropes but it plays a lot more with philosophical themes, the process of history, identity, and other fun things.

yesss dark is so good! i just really like how the show takes itself seriously and doesn't feel like it can be commercialized like stranger things. the storytelling is really well done and it doesn't overexplain itself which i find really refreshing.

I honestly had trouble wrapping my head around some of Dark, very cerebral
