Constellation (2024)
10/10
i've read enough reviews
31 March 2024
To understand why some people liked it and some didn't... i'm old. And i've read a number of books on quantum physics...i'm sure a lot of people were/are scared away from the subject for(at least) a few reasons...the math AND that it's not even CLOSE to fully understood are two of them... some of the low ratings came from people who didn't see the full season. I'm thinking a lot of them are young. The ones needing immediate gratification AND short on knowledge of quantum theory... i say this because the people who've rated it high state that they DO understand something about quantum theory AND have seen the full season... it IS repetitive in some of the plot threads...and there, of course, is a reason for it...and it involves trust in the writers/writing to just be patient and wait for it to make sense...i know there have been quite a few series that i began losing patience with in the beginning and stopped watching...but, over time, i learned that this might be a mistake b/c a good friend of mine told me i should've stuck with one or two of the abandoned series...so i went back somewhere down the line and found out how right she was. And she was.

This is some amazing storytelling...i DID have a few problems with the very last event, though... the largest of which is that i'm thinking there's a good chance that this show won't get a second season, given the reaction of a lot of the response...it's seems kind of 50/50...or maybe a bit more in its favor...but i haven't looked at ALL 172(as of this writing) of the responses here... one of the things i like about the program(there are lots, but i'm only going to mention this one. For those who have short attention spans and might read this). Quantum theory IS a bit complicated...but this show kept repeating elements of it, both verbally AND visually, to, imo, help people understand it. That was obviously lost on a number of the reviewers who stopped watching, claiming it was too repetitive...'if they do/say 'so and so' one MORE time...'. But nothing appeals to everyone. As another reviewer said, 'this one's for thinkers'... who knows? Maybe EYE won't still be around to see it if there IS a second season...at least not in this universe.

Life is full of possibilities...
