We all deserve to have a good rest after watching it for 8 hours straight.
Help, my brain melted
Right, I wasn’t annoyed by the show but watching it for 8 h was f***ed up but I did to myself, so no reason to complain actually...
I watched all 3 seasons in 33 hours:P Then spent the next 2 days making a chronological timeline.
Honestly, I was completely knackered when I finished watching it. As amazing as it was, it was also exhausting!
@@shaecouture7480 lol same didnt even knew about just start watching it by accident
At the mid point of series 3, I was getting worried that it was all too much. It was so confusing. Too many characters. But they brought us back in with the last 3 episodes. What a ride.
The ending of episode 6 shut down my brain because of Eve's Army
My brain exploded when martha kill jonas in parallel world😅😅😅 I thought now the story will decline but no...there was another surprise waiting😅😅😂
Totally. I feel like they were aiming to exhaust everyone, taking the confusion up to an almost un-follow-able level, to then reveal: this is what the characters have been going through endless times before trying to analyze what went wrong this loop, what to fix next loop, and there are so many variables that there is no "figuring it out" for Adam and his team and Eva and her team, so when Claudia shows up and reveals what really has to be done, it was such an a-ha moment where I realized the creators wanted you to experience how it would be impossible to untie the knot. Such an awesome show!
@@RohitSharma-so5eu I was with you right there. I was totally lost and at some point, kinda loss hope for a satisfactory ending. And then it started over with another reality. Truly remarkable show.
I was worried when middle aged Jonas in ep 2 didn't know that he travelled to different world.Then i got worried when jonas died but Bam Schrodinger's cat...And then i was relieved 😁🤣
In the end, OG-Old-Tanhaus was successful, and he himself never got to know it, in either of the 3 realities. That was my favorite part of it all.
What you know is a drop...
That was my favorite part of the ending.
Didnt even realize this until I read your comment, and it blew my mind
The message being, be gratefully for what you have, you'll never know how lucky you are to have it.
@blu menthal I think people miss that. In the end it's still a new reality so he was successful, but his reality still exists. Otherwise it would make no sense. If Jonas and Martha never exist, they can never be there to stop the crash. So in the end they all existed.
Dark is the best Netflix series and probably one of the best of all time, it’ll be hard for any series to even come close.
attack on titan will eclipse this. Trust me. Final season is coming. and yes I have read the manga.
this is gonna be a cult following...
@@lakshaykumar5649 ahahahahahahah as an Animator this is a fuinny Joke :D
The Expanse destroys this with both hands behind its back.
@@InstigatorDJ I've seen The Expanse (as far as available) and I love it. And I don't think it would want to be compared to DARK. Different shows...
Personal preferences are just, well, personal.
I find the storytelling in The Expanse to be rather conventional and the storytelling in DARK to be something else, something I've never seen before and never expected.
So, no destruction here, just two shows that are great in their own right.
As a huge fan of DARK, I was worried if Season 3 would be disappointing compared with the first two seasons (like Stranger Things 3), or contain a lackluster series finale (like Game of Thrones Season 8). Thank god I was wrong, because Season 3 of DARK is the most brilliant way to end a brilliant show! DARK is probably the best TV show ever produced since Twin Peaks or Breaking Bad!
Actually I think that stranger things 3 was the best season, a lot of people think this way you should watch some videos about it
@@mekero4643 i know nobody who likes season 2 or 3 of ST
@@mekero4643 Same. I like dark more, but season 3 of stranger things was fine with me. It was more light hearted than the other seasons and was more of a break for the characters
Wtf, ST season 3 was good, not better than season 1, but wayyy better than season 2, and, i mean, DARK is great, but the best show? I think is kinda overrated
Season 3 of Stranger Things is actually pretty good, season 2 is the one that sucks.
Just finished Season 3 and I just can't get my head around how tragically and yet beautifully it ended. I'm speechless.
Every main character that is not at the dinner table at the end only existed because of time travel
Not technically true, but in spirit - yeah.
Jonas isn't born yet. (You know what I mean)
@@roy168x The Jonas we know will never be born. Cause his dad was michael. Hannah's son will be named Jonas but that's it
Well, I really thought Helge's mother had an affair with the priest Hanno, and that's why Noah seemed to like Helge. But the fact that Peter is alive in the end scene just shots the shit in that theory. And who the hell is Peter's mom?
@@roy168x Wouldn't be the same Jonas anyways.
When they went to Tannhaus to fix it all, I really thought that they would accidentally kill his son and wife with the kid and thus it would all begin
that would be brutally mind blowing but all in all it would make sense and yet dissapointing...
At this point I think they wanted us to feel like that, because it always have been a giant loop
I was terrified that would happen as soon as I heard the plan
LOL THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. My heart sank when the car swerved and I was like oh no... here we go.
Haha I thought the same, I’ve seen a few people make reaction videos to Dark and that’s what they always say. Brilliant writing.
Now that the ending is satisfying i can say it:dark is the GOAT serie
@@roberthahn6496 Subtitles..
@@ArjunAS and
My name is Jonas.
For real tho, love how wr have to wait till the last minute to comfortably pick this as a top show. G.o.T knows we made that mistake before.. 🙄
Miss Hannah already......
I think youre right. This show has so much to talk and think about. It will become cult status far beyond this finale
H.G. Tannhaus's experiment was like the big bang for these two worlds.He also saved his family in a way so his experiment did succeed
Also Hannah's dream could also be implying that the origin world when it was split into two just stopped.Became blank...
I thought Hannah's dream was her experiencing in a dream what happened to her two counterparts when they disappeared
@@radhiadeedou8286 well yeah that scene was actually explaining wht happened with every character after their respective world vanished.So u r right.
"Don't recommend binging the 3rd season back to back or all three seasons back to back it would just straight up kill you."
Me sitting here after watching all three seasons in a span of five days :D
Same
Same! I started last Thursday on season 1 and finished season 3 last night. What a wild ride, holy shit
I binge watched one season per day.. so total of 3 days 😁
Dark is a masterpiece.. so underrated imo
I'm not joking. I watched season 3 last night and it ended around 2am. My head was spinning and i literally felt that i will go mad because i was sleep deprived too. Thank God i woke up alright
Me too.but i loved it.
A great thing about this season is that every hated or disliked characters became like able and understandable.
Exactlyyyy
Because there is no antagonist on this story. They are all the players of the loop.
What about the dude who broke into Peter and Elisabeth's trailer? Trololol
Still don’t like Hanna
@@alexisferdinandcalugay3461 what about Hannah?
Katharina's death really hurt me. Especially when you realise they kind of foreshadowed it in the first season with the kids swimming in the lake teasing each other about the woman who lives under the water, waiting to pull you under 😭😭 so, so sad. What a brilliant, brilliant story.
I totally forgot about that moment. Damn this is sad...
I realized that they find the necklace there, but I completely forgot about the myth of the woman
Son Goku omg 😱
Katharina was loony and mean to people. I wanted to tel her the whole show to take a shower and brush her teeth.
I found it more sad because she was abused by her mother as a teenager. In the end, her mother ended up killing her (which I'm sure that's what she wanted anyway) even if she didn't know that was Katharina.
On a scale of 1 to 10, Dark is definitely 100 🔥🔥🔥
🌗🌍🌓
I don't know hey, I would give it a 33/10
Hotter that Helge's mom!!!.
i'm sorry.
Dark is wht GOT promised to be in terms of wrapping things up.
But as a show its limited Only within hardcore sci-fi nerds.
Now thats over, its much better than GOT
well i'm not a hardcore sci-fi nerd and I fkn loved this show!
I hate sci fi but I absolutely adore dark.
Even my mom loved Dark. She completely geeked out and she almost exclusively watches british soaps like Downton Abbey.
@Kyel ! Got is more comples and intelligent than dark? 😂😂😂 you can't be serious. Plus there was no reason Dark would have 8 seasons, it was written as a 3 season series since the beginning. Don't try to go hypothetical, you have to judge on what we got.
the fact when you realize that noah killed that boy yasin because he was dating his wife..
Big Oooof
@@FluffyBunniesOnFire Mads.. in order for Ulrich to take a hint that his disappearance is related to Mikkel as well.
For Erik.. I think for the group to go in the cave coz they know that's where his stash was hidden?
@@jvinsantos6861 wow I just thought they kidnapped random kids
@@MyPhilcat also they used Erik and Yasin as a test subjects to make sure that Helge will successfully travel back in time..
so when noah killed Mads, he want to make sure there is only one descendant from Tronte which is "Ulrich"? am I right?
One thing that struck me every time they showed it was the sign language. I took ASL in college, and managed to retain most of it, and it was interesting how closely the German signs matched the American signs. Like I feel like if a deaf person from Germany, and a deaf person from U.S. met, they would be able to mostly understand each other. Unlike with German and English.
I’d argue DARK is the gold standard of TV, period.
@Kyel ! I personally couldn't get into GOT unfortunately. It's exceptionally well done. Acting, music and overall production are all superb. I just for some reason didn't connect with any of the characters and wasn't interested in the story. I can definitely see why it's so popular though!
@@reddragon0519871 you were more “connected” with the characters in dark mate? 🤔that’s interesting I love dark but I wouldn’t say it’s even in the same league as GOT when it comes to great and memorable characters
@@raymondsims7042i saw you on another dark review
@@bessidahorse yeah I love dark!!
I agree with all your points even the "critiques". Dark Truly is a sci-fi masterpiece especially in the past decade! The last 2 episodes were gold and totally sticks the landing!
In the first episode, Deja vu, within the first 15 mins when Martha, Magnus, Bartosz, Kilian meet at school and are going up the stairs, there were 2 twin looking girls holding hands in the background...did anyone notice lol
They didn’t seem to belong there , just random
i think they were paying homage to the shining
@@rishabhvaidya4717 they did.
Got The shining vibes i was like is this a shoutout to Stanley Kubrick
I think there were several "odd" characters in the background of that shot in the alt world school. I think they were kinda showing us it's a time and place that should not be there. I may be wrong but that's how I took it. I thought it was AMAZING. It was my 10 year wedding anniversary and my wife and I watched the show instead of wasting money on doing something we'd probably forget about in a few years. Thanks Dark!!
They had a lot of characters from different shows and theater as they had a theater day or week, can't remember it right now, in school. It was written in German on the posters in school.
I also love how the play Ariadne foreshadows the set of labyrinth.
Yeah when the went to Katarina and locked up Ulrich I was like meh, but then, the beach, the necklace in the sand I was like Oh! Oh! Thats the necklace, That’s the legend.
How the hell am I supposed to watch normal shows after this(just finished season 3)
Most painful things for me was
1- In the third world when Jonas & Martha stop the origin and begin to dissolve into atoms, when Jonas said for the last time "You and I are perfect for each other" and not kissing Martha for last time
2- you and I aren't mean to be together (you get it)
3-Ulrich suffering for his entire life for nothing due to Egon who just as Ulrich said,knew nothing till the end
4- Katheria abused by her mother till her death
5- Mikel's entire life of terror
It took me all day & a second watch to truly understand. I thought to myself during the first watch "hey does any of this make since" but after dissecting it all the elements came together. Dark will go down as one of if not the most ambitious sci fis of all time!! I'm going to miss this show.
PREACH
i liked your comment and removed the like again to maintain the 33 likes omfg
@@MrVaishakh13 x2
Even if you are not interested in a certain character's plotline, you can't not pay attention because it might show something new.
Idea for drinking game:
Every time Noah acts edgy drink
Noah was an awesome character in season 1 and 2. Everytime the scene got tense, I would whisper to myself, "here comes Noah" and bang! He wasn't the same in season 3 though lol too much of a family man
Lmao whenever he says "I am noah" you have to drink two
Osama84ca season 3 was technically a prequel for Noah so before he became what he was in 1 and 2
@@Osama84ca Lmao I ACTUALLY had convinced myself when he appeared in that Rolls Royce in the forest lane wayy back in season 1 that he was the devil come to a small town posing as a priest. 🤣🤣 I was a bit off there....
Every time when someone says 'you'll know when the time is right'
Dark is truly remarkable. Thank you for your review.
Absolutely brilliant show with almost no distracting or annoying flaws, and an amazingly satisfying and and elegantly simple resolution. It managed to accomplish in 3 seasons what GOT completely failed to do in 8. I will certainly rewatch the whole thing in coming years, both to make sure I never forget it, as well as to catch more details I may have missed and have an overall deeper understanding of how it all works. I'm still just kind of sitting in awe of the whole thing and feeling privileged to have seen it.
This is probably my favorite series of all time now I’m gonna be looking for something else to watch and compare it to this it’s gonna be hard to find something this good again.
One way to keep track of the Martha's was to pay attention to the placement of her small eye cut when it was on the right side she was in Jonas world & the left was Martha's. The Martha that was influenced by Jonas never traveled to Marthas world after she was intervened on by Magnus & Franziska.
"don't watch all three seasons back to back, it'll ultimately just kill you" 😂 So true! I remember at one point just pausing it and screaming at the TV "where the fuck am I!!??" 😂😂. I text my son " this show is like Back to the Future on Bath Salts!!"
I love the parts where something is explained but hasn't happened yet. For instance where Magnus was teasing Martha about the legend of the dead lady in the lake and Jonas finding the St. Christopher medal in the sand, when Katerina was at Dr. appt with Mikkel and not killed by her mom yet!
Holy fuck the dead lady in the lake, it Was their mother!!!! FUUUCCCKKK
Yea about that I finished the series in 3 days and I almost died of the amount of craziness
@@Colencence... mind blown 😁😂 that St Christopher revelation was the most mind blowing piece for me. I thought they'd forget how it ended up there in the lake. Oof!
I also loved the ending. The show is definitely a masterpiece.
Through I wonder if Jonas had a nickname of "Long Pause" Kahnwald? I don't know how many times I kept making circular motions with my hands, "Come on, Jonas, Out with it!". Of course he over-compensates as Adam with his long winded expositions.
My drinking game would be, start drinking when the camera is on Jonas and waiting for him to speak, and by the time he speaks, we'd be drunk.
Anyway, brilliant season and show,
This show deserves all the awards and attention. Definitely one of the best sci-fi shows I’ve ever seen. Beautiful ending, I loved it.
By far the best show I’ve ever watched
I binge watched the whole season and was so fucked up afterwards that I had an insanely vivid dream about my long dead grandma and that I somehow died with her in a parallel time line and my life is so terrible because I should be dead. I'm not in a good place...
The longer I think about, the better the ending gets. There really was no other way to do it in a satisfying way; not to a level like this. There was a point in the final when I gasped and thought .. are Jonas & Martha _causing_ it all when they pop up on the street, but it all played out good. The ending is so straight forward there are not many questions left to even ask. Minor things, yes, and we may get/find answers along the line - but the show itself closed the loop on itself with an ending that makes you smile and be sad at the same time. This is how a bittersweet ending should feel like!
Exactly, it's a bittersweet ending. It's kinda ironic that it worked out bittersweet considering Adam & Eva spent so long trying to make everything happy by creating "paradise" but by trying to do that they were actually creating an infinite loop of sadness. But as soon as they decide to work together they create an ending that is both happy and sad.
When they appeared in front of the car and tannhaus son tried to avoid them I thought OMG they cause the accident, this is also part of the loop, this nightmare will never end
Dark series also shown reincarnation as a quantum Immortality concept, Katherina died in first world and reborns in second World, she then died in second World during apocalypse but her soul remembers her suffering during the lost of Mikkel that's why she was hugging Mikkel during apocalypse, Peter died in first world and reborns in second World, that's why he was feeling like he have met Jonas, when Jonas first time came to his world, because he have given him therapy, Martha have also born in second World that's why she was saying that when I met you Jonas I felt I met you before, Magnus Does all time travel thing with Jonas and reborns in second World and that's why he was satisfied during Apocalypse of second World because he have done so much work so his soul was satisfied. Similarly Francisca also done so much work and reborns in second second World and she was not having voice because she disrespected her sister who can't speak and her soul was also satisfied during Apocalypse of second World. but Jonas born again in his own universe but in Scrodinger cat theory, quantum immortality, that's why he never born in second World because he was always present in his world, his soul never gone their to reborn. But they all reborn in third world through different parents and reunited. The paradise.
yes it may possible that quantum immortality concept of quantum physics can exist in real we just don't know that we are immortal and we will be become our Ulternate version of Scrodinger cat experiment, as Jonas felt something when he first read the letter of Martha, because he knows then only that The lines he said to real Martha can't be known by the Martha of other world. So it may be all version of all characters were past and future life of each other. And that is why he became Adam from Jonas.
There is also a hint given in episode 5 of season 2 that in staring scene Middle Jonas dreamed where he is with Teenage Martha on bed and then suddenly Martha belly Ejects black liquid and that was their son, the origin, he was shocked because Adult jonas never goes to Martha for intercourse on bed , but because in true sense he goes to Martha world and died and reincarnated in alternate version.
And this song just was playing during Stranger Jonas was on work, indicating that he is done dying
Watching Season 3, I thought oh fuck, they're doing too much, being too extra, there was a part of me, admittedly that thought Im going to hate this season, but finding out the Orgin was a beautiful thing, and a tragic thing as Jonas and Martha never existed anymore, Jonas fought so hard to save Martha, that it was a vicious cycle he couldn't stop.... I personally am so glad there's not going to be a Season 4, while I'm going to miss these characters and the story, honestly I can't take 100 scenarios to stop Jonas or Martha :)
I'm as American as they come. Honestly, I can't stand foreign shows/subtitles/dubs. Because of that, it took me three separate tries to finish episode 1 (probably most boring episode of whole show on second watch). But MAN, I cannot reiterate strongly enough how much I loved this show. Breaking Bad will always be #1 for me, but Dark is #2 no question about it. Definitely more mind blowing and artistic. I am grieving the end of this show.
I'm happy you overcame that! They're are so many good movies outside of the US and maybe you're open to more of that now
Season was brilliant, enjoyed every second. Glad they left us the eye patch mystery to theorize on. 😂
John Frum the show took you on a ride. The cycles were being carried out and the characters we watched were all playing their part. They had awareness of being in a cycle but not the ability to break free. All that really happens is a slow zoom out of the situation. We start with just a child going missing and then we keep seeing more and more of the picture until the last two episodes where we get to see the whole thing. When we get to see the whole thing, that’s when the characters get to break free and we get our Donnie Darko sacrifice. If they had done it any differently we wouldn’t be able to get these beautiful drama filled interpretations of time travel paradoxes. The show hits on all these time travel phenomenon but puts in a drama that you can track from start to finish. The story of self sacrificing Donnie, I mean Jonas is a basic one no doubt. The constant manipulation of characters to get them to do and feel certain things is frustrating, I was legit yelling at the screen and begging for something to change for two seasons, season 3 I learned my lesson and just sat back and enjoyed the ride. I feel like my intelligence grew from contemplating all the time paradoxes and all the bootstrap repercussions. It was a joy to work through the frustration. I had a satisfaction at the end like after you untangle a pair of really knotted up headphones. Your complaining and cussing the whole time but damn it feels good to have it untangled and it still be functional. This has surpassed Da Vinci’s Demons as my favorite show.
Best original series on Netflix
On Point like Always James!
"Dark" was a Hell of ride (in 3 timelines) ;)
Thank you and Greetings from Germany
Endlich mal eine hervorragende deutsche Serie
@@robinwillmann6693 Yeah
WOW. This is SUCH an incredible review. I’m sooo in love with this series certainly the best I’ve seen in a very long time... maybe EVER
Great to see that you’ve enjoyed it and you are just as amazed as I am, you’ve really described it for what it is 👌🏾
The only series which raised the standards of viewers
I'm glad they justified the End we were hoping for. Satisfied.
“And definitely don’t watch all three seasons back to back, it will straight up kill you.”
Thank god I didn’t do that 👀💀
I had a massive headache going to bed that night and into the next morning. So I agree with this sentiment, in retrospect.
What a ending brought a tear to my eye a series well done and original with a ending
I would've liked old man Helge Doppler to pop up in the last scene of the finale muttering "it's happening again tik tok"
Wow..
This man just collected all my thoughts,
and expressed it in the most intelligent way possible.
I was soo worried about season 3,
and i'm beyond happy how much it blew my expectations away.
I'm literally sad it's over, because idk how anyone can top this..
The crew, the writer, the director, man.looks like it is a passion project. New details I find blows my mind everytime I watch it back.
It is one of the greatest TV series ever produced. Top 10 without question.
Agreed
I didnt took notes at all. I can give the advice to watch this Series at twice, because you understand things better then. I did it and i understood 100%
and i love that tiny scores
and i cryed the second time at the end - because they all died for a good reason and then the Music gives the emotions extra punch
I had a mental breakdown after watching Season 3 ..... It is called Dark for some reason... if you see beyond the series... its really dark and impacts you directly in real life.
This really must go down amongst the best shows of all time. By the end there were 2 sometimes 3 versions of character over 6 timelines inhabiting 3 parallel universes yet it somehow all made sense.
Also it was half way through the final season that i realised the significance of the shows title, opening song and title sequence. Utter genius.
There’s actually 3 young Marthas running around. In addition to the old and middle aged one we get a total of 5 Marthas
Really surprised everyone seems to have loved the ending. I was a bit disappointed. It felt very plot driven, with characters making odd decisions in order to take the plot where the writers wanted it to go. Also, though they did a good job of tying up loose ends, to me it felt like that’s what they were doing, rather than revealing those ends as integral parts of the story.
Still, really enjoyed the journey and I can’t rule out totally changing my mind about the end after a rewatch.
I finished the show today (I know I was pretty late to the party because I decided to watch season 1 & 2 again before watching season 3). I was totally stunned by how good and satisfying Dark is. My goodness. Not only its time travel story telling is convoluted but eventually rewarding, the entire show tells love and sacrifice stories in every plot details. The love and sacrifice the parents are willing to make for their kids, and so is the love (and sometimes hate) between lovers. There were hopes and disappointments among the characters and in the end we realized that they were never meant to exist but they were, for a long, torturing and yet bittersweet while. The finals words between Jonas and Martha were really touching as it reflected way back to just a few simple lines in Season 1. I’ve never watched a Sci-fi series that great. Now I don’t know what I should watch next.
Just finished watching the 3rd cycle! WOW! Great review James! You hit it on all points. I didn't rewatch any of the previous seasons. As you said, I felt I was in good hands with these story tellers. But some day, I look forward to rewatching this all again. Not binge it, but savor the whole story fresh! I haven't been this blown away in a tv show since Archie Bunker reveled his childhood nickname was "Shoe bootie". LOL But anyways, now to watch your discussion with Binge Zone!
Happy 4th!
I still don’t understand when and how In Adam’s and Eve’s timeline they were able to discover one another’s world?
Who discovered the other’s world first?
I do understand the 2 different timelines of Jonas and Martha. However:
Why would Adam ask Magnus and Franzika to send Martha to save Jonas just to create the origin only to kill her and the origin, as well Jonas dies that time line?
In the other timeline where Jonas goes to the basement the origin would never be created, this is due to Eve sending Bartaoz to stop Martha from saving Jonas, however she wants to origin to be created?
This is the most brilliant show I’ve ever seen in my life bro
This show made my mind go into full circle the way it did on it’s worlds. In the first season the plot twist was already revealed right in the title theme. And later when Taunhaus explained the concept of the 3rd dimension. I thought it was interesting and I also believed in the concept of that third choice existing. I paid no mind to it until season 3 came and I hate myself for brushing it off. I was too annoyed and wrapped up in the whole loopty doo mess that is Jonas and Martha.
3 fun facts about the produktion of Dark :
1. The final scene between Jonas and Martha, was the last scene filmed on the final day of shooting. All the cast and crew were present. People were crying at the end.
2. the VFX studio is known for its great work.. the did a lot of great fx for lot of the blockbusters in the last years... Like endgame, cpt marvel etc
3. Wöllners eye. The actor of Wöllner had an accident before filming starts and they incorporate this into the plot ;-)
Dark is a masterpiece of science fiction , and storytelling in general !
That this show was able to stick the landing is one of the greatest feats in entertainment history. Dark is a true masterpiece.
I just wanted to say, I watched all 3 seasons back to back, and I'm still alive. And to tie it up in two episodes was brilliant! I bet if I rewatch this, there are scenes that belong to the other world, but I just didn't notice.
The German efficiency at its finest I’m telling you .... jeez you can’t top that 😇
I loved every season of this show- I am so happy about its ending, in a way I wonder the last scene where hanna sais she is calling her baby Jonas 😱 and one moment before was looking at the yellow jacket 😱? Is it possible that they will come back? Great finale! Have u check Baran bo odars movie who am i? It is great too! Cant wait for more things from this duo- I hope u are recovered from ur trip, thanks for sharing with us 🙏🏼ps I kept hearing the rocky horror shows time warp everytime the screen jump to another world and yes it could make a great drinking game 🤣
I enjoyed the series a lot. I think it’s one of the best, if not the best tv show I’ve ever seen. I enjoyed the ending too. I thought it was done very well. Having said that I’m a little disappointed they didn’t have Jonas and Martha cause the accident that killed taunnhas family as the ending to the show. I feel that really would have brought home the beginning is the end and the end is the beginning theme of the show. A little nihilistic for Netflix perhaps but that would have been my preference for the ending by maintaining the symmetry like that. Regardless i still enjoyed the way they did end it and thought it was well done.
But the show's main story is about finding yhe origin and breaking that loop/knot to end the cycle, so preventing that accident instead of causing it is a wise choice, giving us a closure and ending instead of ending up again to the beginning of the story.
I agree 100% with this comment. While I did enjoy the ending, I feel that the whole show set the theme that destiny can not be changed and I thought that they would cause the accident. That would have been a "darker" but more fitting end. No matter how hard we try, we can't escape our destiny. One can do what he wills, but one can not will what he wills!
I would normally like a downer ending like that, but I think what they did was absolutely perfect! I really needed something uplifting right about now.
@@adamp2029 Upon further consideration I think I am happy with the ending had it ended with martha and jonas evaporating away. The dinner scene at the end i think felt out of place. Remove that and i think it was perfect
Gawd damn. U people already finished it?
I'm over here just watching 1 episode a day
The pace is balls to the wall I couldn't help myself
@Andres Rangel dam that’s impressive.
My gosh. I’ve had to pause episodes and breaks in between. To let stuff sink in.
I’m about to start episode 5. Why am I here on TH-cam? I should go watch the rest.
Watched all S1 straight and watched all S2 straight. They suck you in. But S3 took me three days... if you think S1 is complicated, are you in for a surprise in S3 😂
yeah couldn't wait.
@trildi 😳😳😳
Yo, I am still thinking about “everything” about 23 hours every day.
Someone send this to JJ Abrams & Lindeloff as a lesson for writing. This is what Lost should have been.
After Season 1 I was so thrilled with this show. I really thought it was the best show in a long time, on par with Twin Peaks, True Detective Season 1 and so on. Unfortunately, at least for me, the show overall was pretty good but never lived up to Season 1. Its greatest flaw is also its greatest strength: plot. The 'plot' is so dense, so Moebius strip like. Which makes the show super interesting. At the same time though makes the show, overall, just a big big plot. Because it is intricate much of the time is spent with characters telling what is happening or what they think is happening and how to change it or how they think it could be changed. Over and over again. This leaves very little ( I would say none) time to actually develop the characters properly. They are more like figurines, symbols, shadows. I appreciate the show a lot and I think it is really really good. And I am glad it had an emotional core at the end of it. But the promises of Season 1 have not been met for me. Now, waiting for The Expanse S5 ( which I think is a show that really has it all so far: plot development, characters and so on)
Season three is in? Well thank you for bringing this to my attention. Now if you’ll excuse me I need to stop flapping my arms and squealing, change my undies then go relax and try to watch this in a calm and mature manner.
Just here for Woller's eye and missing arm! Come on!!
If you pay attention to certain details, what happened to Wohler's eye becomes apparent. Remember back in episode
Oops, I hit Reply by accident. I will just write it all down and copy it into my next reply.
Can anyone please answer my questions? Like, I have a lot after watching Season 3.
1. Does the Adam and Eve myth exist in the origin world? Or does it only exist in the two glitched worlds? If it's the latter, then why do you think the screenwriters are implying that we, people in real life, are living in a glitched world?
2. How did the first cycle of the two glitched worlds happen? The starting point was the nuclear explosion (where time stills in a fraction of a moment), right? Is this the event that gave birth to Jonas and Martha? Or was it the clockmaker Tannhaus' intention to have his son and daughter-in-law back? If his son and daughter-in-law are the original inspiration of the glitched versions, Jonas and Martha, then who is the glitched version of the clockmaker's granddaughter? Was it Claudia? I don't think it's Claudia, because origin-world Regina's mom is Claudia herself. Claudia exists in the origin world.
3. In connection to question 2, how are "fake" human essences produced in a glitched universe? We know the "why" and it's because of origin-world Tannhaus' experiment. But the show didn't reveal the "how". In the glitched worlds, how were Jonas and Martha manifested? Quantum entanglement? Cesium-137? How did their genetic code manifest precisely?
4. If the point of Claudia's epiphany is to end Regina's pain/suffering, then how come in origin-world, pain still exist? Also, how did Claudia exactly pinpoint the origin-world's interdimensional points, the numbers Jonas and Martha used to world hop?
My head was spinning after the first few episodes of season 3 that I had to go sleep it off, what a ride indeed. The show also spoke to me on a philosophical level where I kept on thinking about the little story by Chuang Tzu “Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was myself. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man.”
Love the Fist of the North Star reference. I’m just now on season 2 but dipped a toe in this video. Bailed before I learned too much. Thanks!
Story started to get frustrating to me in season 3 but oddly enough this was more frustration for the characters and not so much the show itself. I kept rolling my eyes at the loop and I swear...
I understand EXACTLY HOW Jonas became Adam without turning completely erratic insane, Adam was almost godlike in his indifference and detachment from all of it because he saw it all before and knew the end game was all that mattered. Really made me think.
Favorite Villian next to Thanos now.
The ending was so sad...
With everything that happened, what makes you say that?
@@titusspellings5877 the worlds disappeared so yes it's sad for all the characters except the ones not affected by jonas and martha
@@tony-bh3td this is what Dark teaches us: let things go and let people live without suffering.
I think it's a happy ending. The issues with us(us being human beings) is that we think we should tell others when they should live and die. If someone is so miserable and suffering why should "we" tell them "you can stop living, continue to suffer". Its like assisted suicide. If a person has exhausted every option to make them happy why is it our place to tell them to continue to suffer. I'm not saying let people commit suicide at the slightest sign of something bad happening but if they have no hope then by all means do what will help you, and sometimes that may be to simply end the suffering. I know that's not gonna be a popular take but why should we tell any other person they must suffer to make us feel better thinking we are helping them.
It was a fine ending. I was only disappointed that Adam and Old Martha didn't have a similar interaction as the younger versions did.
I enjoyed DARK so much!
However I found that a lot of the action in season 3 was people coming in and out of rooms while people looked at walls or machines and something enigmatic
"I've been expecting you..."
"They told me you would come..."
I have another few question- seems Reddit doesn't care to answer hence posting here-
1. So, who gave the blueprint of the time machine to Tannhaus in the 'original world'. I mean we are shown Tannahaus receiving blue print in Season 1 by "white devil"- Claudia which tells him how to create the time machine in the first place, which appears to be done in Adam's world (which i believe Season 1 and 2 are placed, and 3rd season is in Adam and Eva's world both). So this means in original world no time machine exists. When in 86 ? while Tannahus is trying to create the machine and has an accident hence splitting the original world into 2, thats when Adam and Eva's world starts, isnt? this concludes for me that no time machine really existed in original world but tannahaus creates in Adam's world. I am not sure about this whole bit.
2. Who creates the "inter- world" - portal - Ball gadget? Who gathe the blueprint for that. Did the Tannahaus of Eva's world made it? or did Sic Mundus create it?
3. How many time machines are there- a. The cave door portal, b. The suitcase time mahcine c. The chair time machine which pretty much looks like was an accident anyway- never really worked to bring anyone alive.
4. When Jonas-Adam is already working on a time machine in 1888 given by the black god particle from Martha (sent by future Adam) why does Noah find the need to create the "chair time machine" and kill kids. Noah knew that Adam is already working on it.
5. I didnt see anyone using Suitcase time machine in season 3. Just the ball to travel between 3 worlds and the cave door.
1. There is no successful time travel device in origin world. Tannhaus tried to build one in the bunker, that accident caused the split. As far as the suitcase device: it and the Tannhaus book are both “bootstrapped” they have no origin, they both always exist in the 2 alt worlds.
I genuinelyyyyyyy believe that the translated shows on Netflix are IT! Like they’re phenomenal and Dark is a prime example
As good as the ending was, I do think season 3 suffered a bit. I felt that layering on Martha's world only served to confuse the narrative. It didn't really bring anything to the table for me, and in some respects felt like it undermined the characters we had spent time with.
Whereas the first two seasons seemed to progress a character-based mystery, the last season just felt like a barrage of confused atomatons being told what to do by Adam and Eva. How many times in season 3 did we hear someone has been lying, or the phrase "in his world ... And in hers". It got repetitive to the point of parody.
Another problem is Deus Ex Claudia just shows up in the last episode to explain everything in one extended monologue. I'm still not even sure why Claudia disintegrated out of existence, since her bloodline would not have been altered.
Overall the season had some great moments but it was extremely muddled, borderline unfollowable, yet saved by a great ending.
Great video for a great show, thank you.
I started to get worried about half way through the season about the conclusion of the show, but they really managed to pull it of in the end.
I just wished Hannah would have liked to name the baby 'Adam' instead of 'Jonas' at the end...
The only one thing i found which bugged me was martha crying 95% of the time. Except that, fucking masterpiece! I have never seen anything that comes close to this show and people thought inception was confusing. Bravo!
So that is why Tannhaus never traveled through time in both worlds. He always said his place was the present. Apparently, he was not of either world. He was of his own, the original.
Dark Series is my one of the favourite series of all time. Although the series based on mind-blowing gigantic scientific concept of sc-fi & time travel, it beautifully managed all the characters & it's emotions in such a magical way that i totally fell in love with the series. There can be made a film on Jonas & Martha's love story. 😁😊
My journey with the dark from it's beginning of 1st episode to 26th episode will always be a special place in my heart.
But, In the starting of season 3 upto episode 4; i was uninterested with the character development of new world..Yet it was necessary to buildup characters of new world. But after that i was totally invested with the series. The ending scene when everyone disappeared was heartbreaking. I was so much emotional in the end..
And that shows how great this series is!!👌👌
I really appreciate the way Director Baran bo Odar Managed all the characters, events, scenarios is a masterpiece Act.
Also i can't stop myself to praise it's screenplay. They masterfully crafted the confusing story in such a engaging way that we never loose our eyes on the screen. Also the Soundtrack & Music Montages are my favourite part in this series..
Also i was literally heartbroken at two scenes. First when Old Ulrich at hospital looking the sky with the hope of Katharina will come and get him out of that place unknown by the fact that she is dead.. Second scene in the last ending of last episode when Jonas said to Martha "You & I are perfect for each other, Never believe anything else" & disappeared i couldn't stop myself from crying.. 😓😭
P.S :- I recommend everyone to watch this series.. It's the GOAT series ever made on time-traveling concept.. 🙏😍🙏
One thing i like as well is whenevr they talk about a name of a person and then i forgot who that person was but the next scene would be about that person really small but helpful transition :D
I thought Boris Niewald has something to do or related to the Nielsen or Kahnwald.
Boris = NIElsen+ KahnWALD.. 😅
Every time I think I understand the plot, I take a drink. That quickly brings me back to my normal state of incomprehension.
It was wonderful, the ending was so poetic. So looking forward to the writers' new shows. :)
As much as Im not a fan of the last episode completely debunking the rest of what the series was going for, (Implementing the third world, basically making these two journeys we've been going on to be pointless) I do think they tied it up all very well. As someone who watched all 3 seasons in about 2 weeks I do feel like most of season 2 and the early portion of 3 felt like it was giving us filler without moving the story ahead all that much. That could have been of my own fault tho by consuming so much of the series in a short period. The last 2 episodes were amazing tho. I cried for the first time seeing Adam and Eva hug realizing that the cancerous relationship they had with each other had to end. Definitely hit all the emotional beats with Jonas/Martha and Tannhaus's son's interaction at the crosswalk. All in all a wonderful and unique experience that I think could have been slightly streamlined a bit to make it a perfect show.
Marek said big bang ang big crunch in the end. signifying that tannhouse made worlds in a big bang after trying to make a time machine. and big crunch is where everything in the end resets itself.
it's like saying did the bigbang happen in the past or in the future? the beginning is the end and the end is the beginning as the show always stated.
did the bigbang happen because it was the beginning? or because it was the end?
and about woller, he may be the truckdriver that would have killed tannhouse son and his family. it may be because in the two mirror worlds we can see that woller is always differently abled person. assuming that the accident occurs. another strong clue is that woller drives the truck in Jonas's world.
this shows why he's always to uptight in way.
Interesting theory, but presumably Wöller is of similar age to Ulrich etc, that would make him underage to drive a truck in 1987. Of course, that doesn't exclude him, since he can still drive without a license or cause the accident in some other way.
EDIT: Actually, it can't be Wöller, because his eye was still injured in the original universe even when the bridge incident did not happen.
@@postponingcamel5619 i mean maybe that's why that accident occurred in the first place because of that eye injury in the origin worl. i don't know hahaha just a guess
I watched all three seasons back to back last week.
If they were a dream then they’d never actually exist to tell Tanhauses son to not cross the bridge. Just like his Jonas could not kill himself because nothing would exist. Jonas cannot end the cycle because he wouldn’t exist in order to stop it. I think it would be cooler if when they went back in time to tanhaus together Jonas and Martha should have startled his son and caused him to swerve off the bridge. Thus creating the reason Tanhaus made the time machine. So there are three parallel universes. The one that created Adam, the one that created Eve, and the one that created the garden of Eden (the two worlds they live in).
I was afraid that they were going with that ending. I'm glad they didn't it would have been pretty dissatisfying way to tie everything up IMO.
Just finishing watching the series and the Season 3 could not have ended better even though I was hoping against hope that Jonas and Martha end up being together in the origin world too. One of the very best shows ever.
Love your views on the show. 2 questions if anyone cares to answer- 1. What was the significance of black tar on Michael (season 1) and Martha (season 3) near cave?, and, when they made very clear that even if Jonas will try to kill himself he cannot because his older version already exists, why he dies in Eva's world - is this because he 'travelled' where he is 'not supposed to exist"
The black tar is just the dark matter that is required for time travel
@@AtlantaGuns so it is more symbolic then?
HappyGo Lucky yea it’s kinda like a warning to destroy it somehow.
totally agree with ur statement in the beginning, every decade has its awesome movies and series and this is the evidence great stuff is still made right now. sometimes we discredit that in our own nostalgia
tbh we have been spoiled with the latest seasons of dark and better call sall in the first half of 2020 alone, true masterpieces of television and thats quite rare in such a short amount of time
The moment jonas and martha appeared in front of the car and it looked like it was about to crash my heart stopped.....
@ 1:06 - Why does Martha have the appearance of a scar around her neck that looks like she has been hanged ?
If you liked Dark I also highly recommend Mr. Robot. It's very clear that Sam Esmail had a complete story in mind as well during the entire production.
I really loved Dark and am so glad they knocked it out of the park.
Mind bowing. I binge watched this show in a trance, obsessed with finding out how the story ends.
What I really loved about the development of this show is how every character was the hero in their own timeline. “Villains” we only ever saw evil acts from became characters I empathized with and felt heartbroken for as the rest of their story unfolded, knowing how they were just pawns used to push the story to a specific point and then be killed off. Hanno was an excellent example of this. Terrifying villain, but ultimately a father trying to find his daughter that was stolen from him. It was crushing
