Started watching Dark last week currently half way through season 2

I think the below sums up my current feelings

<err> <err> <err> <err>

Don't get me wrong I'm enjoying it but every time I think I understand what is going on they drop another bomb
Watched all of it so far and really hope its finished. How many alternate f***ing timelines can they keep adding? Every time I saw a main character I felt the need to pause to work out which universe they originated from and era they are in.

SpoilerShow
Finished it about a month ago, I agree it gets hell of confusing

warning next spoiler contains info on Season 3
SpoilerShow
especially in Season 3 when they add in the third alternate dimension and link all the families together further

Like it starts off OK with Mikkel being Jonas's Dad making Martha his Aunt but by season 3 it's a mad web of this person is actually this persons father e.g. Bartosz is Martha's great grandfather and Hannah is in a sense Bartosz's Mother in Law.

Mad stuff altogether

Un(Well) - especially "Breast Milk" and "Ayahuasca" episodes.
For older guys, "High Score" should be fun to watch - I loved it.

Waiting for the whole 9 episodes (I believe that's how many there will be ) to be released then I'll start a free trial.

From some of the clips I've seen though. A few points
  • Daniel Levy actually comes across quite well and honest not the prick he's made out to be.
  • Kane is lucky to be a footballer as if he wasn't he probably wouldn't amount to much as he comes across as a bit of a dope
  • Eriksen the opposite clever bloke, the meeting he has with Mourinho and Levy he wasn't afraid to put across his opinion and he just wanted a new challenge.
  • Danny Rose well so glad we didn't sign him permanently the words "Delusion of Grandeur" come to mind. Also his I only wanted to go to Newcastle lines were shown to be bull as when Newcastle and Bournemouth were put to him his first words were "What about Milan"
I'll Hazard a guess

The final batch came out today I think. It's all taken a bit of a turn in episode 8, the writers came up with some ridiculous idea to suspend football altogether <disgrace>

Just finished Haunting of Bly Manor, its decent but not as good as Hill House. The hidden ghost are much harder to spot too.

Not so bad that they annoy me, but can definitely tell they're not British.

Not Netflix, but just finished Season 1 of Absentia on PRIME which is decent.

Watched this last night, while I didn't learn anything that I didn't already have at least some awareness of, it has made me consciously want to cut down the wasted time on things like Instagram and Twitter (deleted facebook a couple of years ago). I'm quite good at leaving my phone in another room on purpose if I just want to focus on what I'm doing or watching, but I think 30 mins a day on all forms of social media is more than enough so I'll see how long that lasts.

I need my phone for work and get a lot of work related things via WhatsApp so that a big killer for me on screen-time but not much I can do about that.

Watching Snowpiercer on Netflix, it's a dystopian future type series where everyone on earth has died in a massive freeze other than those on a 1001 carriage long train that continually circles the earth. The people in first and second class are the paying customers, those in 3rd class didn't have to pay for a ticket but have to work on the train, and the 'tailies' are a group who fought there way onto the train before it departed and are living in s*** conditions locked at the back of the train. You get the premise...those with privilege want to keep it for themselves, those with nothing want it to be shared more equally.

First episode didn't really blow me away but really got into it after that.
