Thank you so much for watching! By far one of the most incredible seasons of television we've ever experienced. What are your thoughts on season 2? If all goes well, season 3 reactions should start either this weekend or sometime next week.
Thank you for letting him witness the "the chicken or the egg personified" reveal (yes, that's what I call it, even though it's lame) without a hint. Fabio's shock at reveals is always entertainment in and of itself.
That's a very good name for this twist. It could technically apply to several other paradoxes in this show, but for this one it feels especially right.
I really like how invested you are. Every time I watch Dark I feel the same and I love that there are people that have the same reaction. Thank you for that
The reveal of Alt Martha always works, as none predicts her coming up to Jonas lmao. This fucking show man. Great reaction guys, and as always you're cooking with all the theories.
Now imagine you have to wait more than a year until the next season starts. That's how it was for those who watched the series when it was first released.
The difference between Fabio's face at 48:50 and 49:00 after Manny explained his Elizabeth-Charlotte theory is killing me 😂 utterly gobsmacked I'm so excited for you to get into season 3 - mainly coz I've forgotten half of what happens so I'll be glad for the reminder 😅 I mean, I remember certain Big Things but I definitely need a refresh
"My body is a cage... we take what we're given, just because you've forgotten, doesn't mean your forgiven" - Peter Gabriel song snaps off on this episode!
I couldn’t believe you figured out the Charlotte Elisabeth relationship. What amazing work. Good luck with the rest of this tho. Season three is going to hurt your brain. Enjoy!
Manny, it's great that you figured it out.. but also DAMN YOU for figuring it out!! I wanted to see that bomb drop and see your reaction. Still good though. Charlotte/Elisabeth is best twist of this entire show.. I've watched this a million times and still dont understand how that can be possible. Its insane in the most awesome way possible. Buckle up for Season 3!! More twists to come!
I was about to go to sleep, but with this I can end the day on a better note, so I might just watch it now. Midnight is the best time to sleep anyway 😅
Hey Guys! It was a pleasure watching your reactions. I've watched the whole series 3 times now and I'm still as fascinated by the events and the whole setup. Enjoy the rollercoaster ride and be ready for many more reveals that will blow your mind :)
And so the first/last cycle begins/ends... It´s a pleasure to watch your reactions and predictions. Now you are ready for the last reveals - prepare for a ride straight to the hell and back!
The theorizing and sleuthing is ansolutely how most of us experienced the show as it came out. The creators definitely catered to it but also made it accessible to those that dont.
Where to even begin with this episode? I can't think of a single episode of anything in television in which so much happens to such a large cast. Aleksander's Walther is the mother of all Chekov's guns. Because it's Dark though, it isn't "if you see it will be used later". It's "it will be used later, and earlier, and later again, which was also earlier." So many people have messed with that gun and it's racking up bodies. Poor Martha died in the apocalypse but not even because of the apocalypse, just a simultaneous but unrelated homicide.
Oh my lord it's a literal Chekhov's gun. What kills me about Martha's death is that she barely even know what's going on. She learned about time travel like, 48 hours ago. She's known that Jonas is her nephew for even less than that. She's JUST reunited with Jonas, only for what looks like a burned grilled cheese in a suit to walk in, say HE'S Jonas, and then shoot her. Not to mention another, older Jonas was also pointing a gun at her earlier that day. I'd be so confused.
About Noah killing Yasin: it is a popular fan theory that Noah killed him because he was Elisabeth's boyfriend. But I don't think that was the reason. Everything Noah did with the children (and probably everything else) was because it was written in the book and it was in the book because it always happened that way. Noah doesn't really have any personal agency in there.
To the Point about feeling bad for Noah. It is easier for Viewer to bond with a Character who has flaws. Like we have in real Life. And i think they made a really good Job with giving everyone good/bad Sites, so that you even feel bad for Noah or Helge. Same with "good" Characters, when they dont have flaws it is getting boring and we dont invest more interest in them.
do you know why Adam was not afraid of getting killed by Noah? - well Jonas witnessed witnessed Adam killing Martha, and that had not happened yet with Noah threatnend him, so he knew he would survive the encounter to fulfill that future memory...and as he tells his younger self, it is not a vision he will ever forget. and congrats on remembering about that spot on the floor, in that last minutes of the commentary....you talked about it a few times during the season, was surprised you did not pick it up on the moment
Oh dang, didn't make that connection! That makes way more sense now. I still wonder if there was more to the fact that the gun jammed at that specific moment. If it was tampered with or if it was because time literally wouldn't allow Adam to die yet (please don't say anything if it's a spoiler).
Great reaction as usual! Congrats for catching the Elizabeth-Charlotte twist before it was revealed here. One thing that bothers me juuuust a little with this twist is that it shouldn't be possible DNA-wise. Like, if Elisabeth's DNA is half Charlotte and half Peter, Charlotte's DNA as Elisabeth's and Noah's daughter simply cannot have the full DNA of the half that Elisabeth got from her. Noah's and Peter's DNA has to be accounted for in this, and then this is just biologically impossible.
Another masterpiece episode and fantstic reaction! You did a great job predicting Elizabeth and Charlotte's complicated relationship! What a major mindf*ck! But then the season finale goes all out! So many other events and interconnections. Wow... And season 3 begins, i know you are already buckled in!
Just to help keep things clear, I suggest these time names for Jonas: Young Jonas, PTSD Jonas, Traveler Jonas, Hanged Jonas, Claudia's Jonas, Stranger Jonas, and Adam Jonas.
The dialog at 8:40 just reminded me, one request: please, PLEASE don't mute the song they play at the the beginning 3x01. It's my ABSOLUTE favorite song of all "TIME" 😁 and I just love to hear it in this show... They go together so well.
Don't get triggered; this question is not answered in the show. Do you think that young Jonas and middle aged Claudia ever had sex during their time together? I always imagined that they would have, because they are alone with each other for such a long time.
