To summarize, this is a time travel loop mystery that spans 4 different time periods: 1890, 1941, 2023 and 2051. Detectives in each of these times work to solve the same mystery.
Since it's a mystery, I won't delve into any details except to say that it had me riveted through all 8 episodes and the ending is very satisfying. All in all a 10 out of 10 for me.

I thought four timelines was too many, it bogged down the pace. Clever idea but two maybe three timelines would've been a tauter story. | | | | Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 1,537 Likes: 7 Member | Member Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 1,537 Likes: 7 | I actually didn't mind the four timelines, just thought the constant switching was a bit annoying.
Maybe it would have worked better if each timeline has its own dedicated episode (or two), then we get a more holistic picture with the time travel stuff.
What ended my interest (just in time I suppose) was the finale. I've done my own mental gymnastics to create a satisfying headcanon for how that worked but I can't see myself signing on for a Season 2 unfortunately (assuming there is one). | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,063 Likes: 9 Wobbly Headed Administrator | Wobbly Headed Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,063 Likes: 9 | I didn't get to the end, sadly. But I think you're right, LaBerge, it was the intercutting between four timelines rather than the totality of four timelines that narked me. | | |
