Review of Beyond

Beyond (I) (2016–2018)
1/10
A short description of the show to help decide
4 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
It's a teen drama dressed as sci-fi. Each episode, all the way up to 8, which is where I left it, gives around 5 minutes of actual sci-fi. The rest of course being teen angst. Most cliff hangers centre around how conflicted the protagonist is having to choose which girl he wants to be with.

I will give 1 spoiler just to show how teen drama-ish this is. So, he's supposed to be essentially a 13 year old awakened into a 25 year old body. Has missed puberty and the magical 'first time'. As such he is fumbly around girls... But then he gets his memories back of spending all that time in another world - with a girl. But serious sci-fi component be damned, if we make him Don Juan we can't make him angsty and nervous.
