01x06 - The Pyramid 9/10 (Great)

[mahdypersonal · 9/10 · 20 November 2022]

This episode actually lifts the veil and shows some of the cogs in the machine behind the scenes. Accordingly it appears that Henry is in charge of this monumental operation and he's testing these individuals for reasons still unknown right now. There's also the motive of the other passengers, who all look to have something in common- they 're lacking a sense of belonging.

Seeing how all these characters are affected by their past, and the way this ties into the attitudes and actions of the various people together, makes for a actually deep and refreshing watch.

It's nice to know a series have us to draw our own conclusions as to what's transpiring rather than spelling it out. Krester and his family, for example, are haunted by Krester's behavior in acting on his sexual impulses, and that explains why they frown upon him getting close to Angel. These kind of cases which we 're not outright told - is incompletely why this works so well.

The ending to this definitely leaves the door open for the next episode, which promises to be quite the intriguing watch.

This can't be real

1. Olek and Ling make out 2. Tove gets flashbacks 3. First mate is Henry's contact.

What an episode! As they search for souls on the dark ship, high suspense is maintained throughout. Lighting work was superb. In between, we get to peek at Tove's memory that involves rape and murder, which was pretty dark.

So now it's abundantly clear that Henry, Maura's father, is in fact conducting some sort of experiment and it could be a physical space they are confined in based on how Maura was able to break the "walls" of her surrounding. Brilliantly shot by the way. Felt so real and unreal at the same time. They talk about the "transfer" and I have no idea what that could entail.

This show has been scratching all my itches. Religious aspect, Sci-fi, psychiatric, time and space bending... I cannot ask for more. I find it easier to connect to the characters because of their trauma and also how they are all in the dark, just like the viewers.

P. S. I ship Olek and Ling hard.

Getting crazier by the minute

[ahmadz839 · 8/10 · 18 November 2022]

I'm at a loss for words; my brain must be having a laugh. The story was already confusing, but that final image of a ship graveyard was chilling and added even more mystery. Honestly, this could go in any direction, and that's why it has me hooked. The strange boy is probably Maura and Daniel's son. The environment can be controlled, so it's possible that the ocean is not real. The words "Remember" and "Wake up" keep coming back, and all the manuals contain the same platitude: "May your coffee kick in, before reality does." Strong indications that it is a simulation raise the question of why, if this is a sim, it is limited to the confines of the ship. What's happening is getting crazier by the minute!

Rating: 8.4/10 (Great)

I officially love this show

[ssmyoung · 10/10 · 19 November 2022]

This episode is incredible. The plot is finally in full gear and the build-up was worth it. We are finally unearthing what is truly going on and it at this moment i really feel like this show will be a worthy successor to their previous masterpiece Dark. The characters are really growing on me and i am so excited to watch the final two episodes of this season.

Baran bo Odar and Jantje Friese are slowly becoming some of best storytellers working today. They have truly perfected the mystery box genre and every episode these guys are proving that they can write both hard-core sci-fi while still keeping the human drama. This is amazing television

9.5/10.

A very good episode

[badeclerck · 24 November 2022]

We finally have an episode that highlights the character of Tove. A complex and interesting character. It was a pleasure to explore her past and to help us understand her role in the loss and flight of her family. The pace is always slow but that's what I like in this series, it allows us to appreciate every moment and every clue we are offered. That is certainly why many will not like it. Relationships begin to be created with the character but we feel that this is not the central point of the series. The central point is this whole mystery around the pyramid. I always hate to see what happens next and know where the show's gonna take us.

Fictions and realities

[AvionPrince16 · 7/10 · 8 December 2022]

More and more engaging. But still have some sides that we are pretty perplex about the complexity of the show. We learn more about the father of the doctor and his relationship with Maura and her mother and see the old building who look like her house and we have also some revelation about the man who was on Prometheus: he seems to be the husband of Maura but nothing is really sure. Maura seem to be dreaming in one of the dream that made her father ( i know its crazy) but nothing is really explicit and we need more to find the truth. The french man reveal that he will die soon if he didnt get operate of his problem. A nice episode anyway and we feel more the tension escalate revelations after revelations. The tv show finally get more and more interesting. I just hoped they will not go into some illogical reasons or abused about the sci fi or power about that triangle object. And the teleportation thing that they can do on the characters. Pretty strange and we still wondering what will happened. Intriguing.

This show never disappoints

"We need to fire up the engine", says the brave German captain and sends FOUR people to "fire up" a STEAM engine. Just for reference, Titanic had 176 (one hundred and seventy six!!!) stockers alone. And that's just the people who throw coal into the boilers. Then we need another three dozen coal trimmers, same number of greasers. Plus we need highly qualified engineers to make sure that enough but not too much water goes into the boiler. But sure, two crew and two priests will be JUST enough. I suppose that's how many people it takes for our renowned directors (Dark and all that) to start a yacht engine in the Mediterranean. After all, the whole ship is controlled by just two buttons, up and down.
