Dark S3E4

Dark S3E4

Ohh, so this is the beginning... Makes a lot of sense one I have seen it.

All this careful manipulations, directing them to do this one thing.

Well, as they say, we are not free in what we do, because we are not free in what we desire.

P.S. Also loved all the interactions in '54. A lot of my questions have been answered.

Dark S3E1

I am 34 minutes in and am not okay.

I think I am having a breakdown. I just paused it, made several laps around the room, reminding myself how to breathe. It's too much, I can't handle it.

It's like if you woke up one day, and all the mirrors are somehow showing you not-mirrorred version of yourself. And it's confuses you to the core.

Also I can sum up my thoughts about the half of S3E1 to:

"Oh, so it's ok here, different but so similar.

*3 seconds later*

Wait, what? Man, just hold on a minute, just..."

Me after Dark S3E5:

Finally! A proper official Dark website!

There's a website where you can check out the whole Dark family tree and it contains NO spoilers. You can choose the episode you've finished and it will display you the info accordingly.

It's wonderful! Despite the fact, that I watched the whole show mindfully, I did miss a detail about who's Tronte's father really is. Now I've finally got the whole picture.

Anyway, if you have just finished watching Dark and you want to organise this information in your mind - check it out. It's really helpful!

THE END IS THE BEGINNING

Discover how everything is the same, but different.

I remember the first time i watched Dark, and i still get the chills whenever i watch it (by now i watched it at least 10 times) because it's such a bold story not afraid of stepping into paradoxes and what the heck revelations which i find so refreshing, most time travel stories i've read/watched walk the same lines, it feels people didn't know how to approach time travel really, dark is my one and only. I'm a bit scared for season 3 because of that.

Well, we should thank Baran bo Odar for it:) I can only imagine how one's mind can create such complicated, but consistent story and didn't leave any loose ends. Everything is where it's supposed to be, the events that seem to be ordinary at first are interconnected and have an influence on the story.

Probably, that's a huge benefit of creating a tv series having a complete story in mind and a clear vision of the rules of time traveling. Thus, the show has fixed amount of seasons from the beginning and all the dots will eventually connect.

I also love how they approach paradoxes and how weirdly understandable they seem. If one is in a time loop one cannot change - everything is possible and there is no beginning and no end. So the book can exist without being freshly written in the first place, more like copied from itself.

I'd say that most of the TV series or movies approaching the time travel on such a scale don't make it look so smooth and easy to grasp for the viewer. Even the show's revelations, which are wonderfully timed and truly mind-bending actually make a lot of sense once the audience let them sunk in.

To be fair, I'm also a tiny bit afraid to watch S3 just because I'm so passionate about the show. I don't know how to handle it if there will be some plot holes or some things won't make sense. However, it's the show's creators we are talking about, and they are as passionate as we are (if not more) to make the series in the best way possible. Thus, S3 should be great in any case.

P.S.: I am not sure if I answered your question, or if there was a question to begin with, but I am glad we both shared our thoughts about Dark :)
