Season finale aired.

Some stuff happened.
There was explaining.

I have no idea what it was all about.

This sucked

As a fan of multiverse and quantum mechanics (not that I fully understand them) I enjoyed this and would be down for a second season.
Spoiler:
As I understand it the experiment on the ship opened a multiverse and had at least 5 characters cross into the wrong world. Naomi, her daughter, the guy from Better Call Saul, the Russian woman, and the other astronaut running the experiment all either lived or died depending on which "where" they were in and shifted somehow to the other world with subtle differences like speaking Swedish or playing the piano or smaller details like calling mom 'mama" The woman was killed in an accident decades ago in her original time line and smashed into the space station when the experiment went live. that gets established at the very end.

Spoiler:
I liked the end scene where the dead body comes back to life and picks up the tablet. Makes me want a season 2 more.

I felt there was a big build up to a resolution that was essentially, "ah well, let's make the best of it."

The performances are good and we’ve invested enough time that we’ll finish it, but it’s not something I’ll be enthusiastically recommending to anyone.
I was mistaken. We watched the penultimate episode this week and gave up. By then, it was such an incredible slog that we both agreed we didn't want to waste another hour on it. That's the first time we've ever pulled the plug on a season with just a single episode left. I can't remember another show that hooked us early and then fully squandered its potential and our goodwill.

I tried to watch the last one twice. Fell asleep once and just gave up the other time after
Spoiler:
he or whatever character he is smashed the CAL.



I will read someone's summary of it on the internet.

I read a recap glad I bailed. I just wish I had not wasted my time with it. Dumb.

For those that like it...why? Jumbled confusing mess even if you are paying attention.

I would be shocked if there was enough interest to bring it back for another season.
