Dreams vs Reality

No this is not Inception, though you'd be forgive if you thought that. Actually I can't really put it in any category - well sure Science Fiction and I already said what it is about in a nutshell. But what happens in season 1 or throughout it ... it's just amazing. I don't think by watching it just once, you can grasp the scope of it ... or understand the whole story that is told.

Even watching it more that once (which I did for a couple of episodes) might not give you an insight to the whole thing. Still it is confusing, infuriating and enticing because of it. You may lose your train of thought(s), but you'll regain it at some point.

Really well told and edited and acted. The first season is well thought through. Which I may be wrong, but does not seem to have included a second season. The second season may have characters (actors) from season 1 (those who made it), but it seems as removed as dreams seem to my normal life - not sure how that is for you, maybe you feel the same, maybe your dreams are closer to reality.

And apart from the second season being a bit of decline (not too much, but it feels like ... something normal compared to the first season), what really might bug you out, is the end of season 2. Calling it unsatisfactory would be a major understatement. So if the last impression is something that generally haunts you ... this will haunt you for a while ... fair warning. Maybe stop after season 1 if you fear that happening.
