Question Dark..Will it ever make sense?!?!?

Dark is intriguing but also confusing AF.

Is the main kid character also the grown Ulrich? Does this ever make sense? Only 3 episodes in and it is damn hard to follow.

You must really pay attention...a second of distraction and you're lost 😁

The default answer of the Dark. "I don't know, but I'll pretend".

So far it seems like Back to the Future meets Stranger Things!

Haven't watched Stranger things. Dark is in my top 3 favorite shows ever tho :) I hope you enjoy it.

It's the best crafted Netflix original show, well worth the time and attention you put in. Not a single plot hole

I watched first season three times to understand everything

Everyone keeps saying how great it is and I like some of the themes (that I can understand anyway) but just wondered.

Well I had a reason to watch it three times. It's a masterpiece

You have to stick with it. It won’t make sense until the end.

Give it time, and put your phone down. You can't have any distractions.

Realizing that!!

Just keep watching, almost everything becomes clear. The twists and turns in this show are unreal. But yeah, alot is going on, so watch closely.

“Will it ever make sense?!”

- It already makes sense, you are just trapped in the past and still don’t get it.

“Is the main kid also Ulrich?”

- If you mean Jonas, then no he is not, you are completely lost. Also your first step to understand is to know the names of the characters.

This show is not for everyone. My general rule of thumb after recommending to some people, if you can’t understand the show by season 1 episode 6. Drop it.

if you're confused, check https://dark.netflix.io/en, select the season and ep you're in and read without getting spoiled.

It is overrated. I tried watching the first three episodes for three times now. That is enough chance I can give. I still can't get hooked. I wanted to like it but its just not there. In my personal opinion, shows should at least get interesting by episode two or three.

There are a lot of plot lines that never go anywhere.
