Dark (2017–2020)
8/10
A good view, but.......
30 June 2020
Not sure the age of the reviewers that equate this series as a 10. It is a good series, but there are glaring stereotypes and glaring probabilities that demand we suspend our disbelief.

Is there any family in this show that does not have hidden skeletons and children that are delinquent, rebellious, or weak? It seems there are no normal families in Winden.

There is a metal door in the ground covered by tree limbs, a door in a cave cordoned off by a single blue rope, and we are suppose to believe that over the years no one has ventured out or seen these things. The cave even has a door to a wormhole in it. I think not.

However, it is a well shot show, enjoyable to see the fashions change with the years jumped, and fun to try to piece the old and young characters together.

It is a time travel show, and though Penny Dreadful with Ethan Hawke is about fictional monsters and characters, its continuity made it more enjoyable to watch and suspend a bit of belief. Check it out.
