It all came together in the end. I remember getting to S3E4 and my brain was fried so I just let it wash over me. Then E7 and E8 explained everything and were perhaps the best 2 hours of TV I’ve ever watched. A re-watch of the entire show made everything so much better too!
If you have to explain that much about your story, it just means that you weren’t able to show your story (or universe). So it’s either not a good story or you’re not a good writer. After all, we call them “TV shows”, not “TV explains”. And it had strong “it was just a dream/wasn’t real” vibes.
I would have to disagree. It wasn’t an explanation of the plot, it was philosophical discussion on the concept of free will. Everything was shown but one had to really observe: not a show to watch whilst looking at one’s phone!
Edit: I know I used the word ‘explain’ in my previous post; ‘clarify’ would have been a better word. Let’s be honest: I’m a massive fanboy of the show and have watched it 8 or more times. I just think it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen.
