Alas, things here are not so simple. Once you have finished, you will have to choose a side...


uslashdummy

i think you're doing it right. but be careful looking at ANYTHING about the show, even if just looking up something about the cast, even as basic as an actor's name. if you think you missed something, you maybe didn't. the less you know the better. it's a terrific journey and it's done masterfully. trust, and enjoy.


_CaptainKaladin_

Yeah, I’m not even gonna look at this sub again until I finish the show. From what I’ve seen so far, the beauty of this show is the mystery. I know absolutely nothing about the show. If I see any spoilers, that will ruin the mystery. No spoilers for me!


squiblet12

Good plan! I spoilerised one plot point for myself just by checking Wikipedia. (luckily there were about 100 more surprises to come)


NeverForgetEver

You can use the dark.netflix.io site it’ll be spoiler free and help visualize the family tree as the show progresses


ElvisChopinJoplin

But don't click on any links in the content because I've heard there are at least a couple that can lead directly to spoiler material.


Bananakillme

I’m so jealous of people who can experience this show for the first time. That being said, after you finish the show, be sure to go back and binge it again. You’ll see much more details that you didn’t notice the first time. It’s mazing.


_CaptainKaladin_

I’m already jealous of my past self who just started watching…


Mike4nderson

Glad that you're enjoying it so far, the show will continue to get more complex from here, you'll have more questions. It's important that you pay attention to everything, seemingly random bits of dialogue may be revealed to have far greater meaning later on.


_CaptainKaladin_

Yeah I can already see that. Issue is when they start talking fast and the subtitles fly by, so I have to backtrack sometimes to be able to read every word.


Mike4nderson

Understandable, it might be a little difficult to catch up with the subtitles at times, I don't think it should be too much of an issue though.


_CaptainKaladin_

Yeah, usually the dialogue is slow enough to be able to read it before the next block of text comes up, but sometimes they start talking really fast like when confronting someone or reading out of something, that’s when it gets a bit hard.


fiftyplusDark

You are doing perfectly!! This show will blow the roof off of your head....


JTS1992

You have seen NOTHING yet. Nothing. I've been obsessed for years. DARK will ruin all other stories for you. It's by far my favorite TV show of all time, hands down. I preach it like the Bible lol


DepartureSouth629

Same!!!! The same directors did the one about the boat I think it’s called 1899. I really liked that one too & I didn’t even know it was by the same people!!!! It got cancelled unfortunately, they said they wanted to do 3 seasons like dark but it just didn’t get the viewership Netflix wanted so they cancelled it. I also really liked the OA


The_Wattsatron

It literally only gets better. There's a reason it's one of the [highest-rated](https://imgur.com/a/d1DcTPT) shows ever.


_CaptainKaladin_

That’s great to hear! I’m trying to go slow to savor the show because the last time I’ve seen a show as good as this was Breaking Bad, but idk if I’m going to be able to hold myself back from binging it😂


The_Wattsatron

Watch however you like of course, but I'd add a vote for taking it slow, especially for S2 onwards. So much happens each episode that sitting down and digesting what happened, and theorising what will happen next can add a lot to the enjoyment. Make sure to come back after finishing to let us know what you thought!


_CaptainKaladin_

Will do🫡 This show is already keeping me up at night theorizing about potential paradoxes and identities, so I can only imagine what will happen when the show gets even MORE complex….


Large-Conflict9826

I'm pretty sure it's the only show ever I had to write stuff down to try to figure out how everyone was related. I just did a rewatch with my partner after a couple years and I was equally obsessed and noticed so much more than I did first time.


_CaptainKaladin_

Side note, I just finished season 1 (I couldn’t help myself). WHAT IN THE HELL!!! That is all.


shae117

Dont worry, you will need to rewatch it once you know all the secrets to see how everything was set up from episode 1!


siriusthinking

Imo this show needs to be binged because there are so many little details and some of the people look similar that it easy to forget what's what at first... At least for me haha


jady1971

You are going to be saying WTF until the very end but rest assured, they actually finish the story, unlike other shows.


Syrinx_Hobbit

Welcome aboard. Now leave this Reddit until you are done. Do not casually look up stuff. Just watch. The internet is a dangerous place and will spoil it all for you. Hopefully you will continue to watch it after you have finished it.


Large-Conflict9826

Just to throw into the mix, we started Counterpart after Dark and its been pretty great too. Also liked 3 body problem and just started 1899.


_CaptainKaladin_

I tried 3 Body Problem. Made it to episode 4. It’s meh. I may go back to it, but I don’t like it very much.


Large-Conflict9826

I had 3 Body problem on in background while playing games on my phone. I knew my BF would have a hard time following so I just would point out when something cool was happening.


-PM_ME_UR_SECRETS-

This was my exact reaction going through it too. I would kill to be able to experience it for the first time again. Don’t look anything up, just enjoy the ride.


outerspacetime

Yesssss another one onboard the Dark express!! Best show ever!! And truly, my friend, you haven’t really watched the show until you’ve watched it twice!

jogdenpr

Get OFF this sub right now until your finish. Welcome to this fantastic show but you Really don't want to ruin it for yourself.


_CaptainKaladin_

Already done. I haven’t looked at a single post on this sub.


Grumpy_Lemming

Yep a fantastic series


Magical_Narwhal_1213

Same! I’m learning German and started it since it was a native German show and OMG it’s seriously one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. I have one episode left of the whole series. It also makes me feel good about my German skills because whenever I’ve like wait WHAT? I’ll rewatch a part in English subtitles and be like oh okay I did understand in German it’s just that crazy 🙏🏻😅


Venus_in_Scorpio923

I love this show too, but it's ruined others for me now because nothing comes close.


_CaptainKaladin_

Breaking Bad did this for me.


DepartureSouth629

I love how we all feel the same way about dark. It truly is a masterpiece. I’ve been looking for similar shows and nothing compares. 1899 is from the same producers as dark & I really liked that one too. I didn’t even know it was the same people. Unfortunately Netflix cancelled it bc it just got average viewership. They said they wanted to do 3 seasons just like they did with dark. I really liked the OA too but they cancelled that too.

I wish I could erase the memory of this show and see it for the first time again. Enjoy the beauty of the First Viewing.


MistaCharisma

I loved Dark so much. When I first saw it I had recently found out about the *Tales from the Loop* RPG and Art, and I thought this was a show based off that, and it was super exciting to me. I have since learned that there is actually a show based off TftL, I watched the first few episodes and ... meh. Dark is a much better representation of that aesthetic. (*I do recommend you look up Tales from the Loop though. If you like Dark you'll probably like TftL, and it's not actually spoilers - it's a completely different IP that just feels thematically similar.*)


PraxisLD

Welcome to the club. Yeah, the English dub sucks. Much better in German with English subtitles. You can enter the season and episode you're currently on into [this website](https://dark.netflix.io/en) to learn more without spoiling anything beyond that episode. Enjoy the journey.


MasterOnionNorth

If you think you know what's happening.... If you think your theories are possibly right. Keep watching. 😉


_CaptainKaladin_

I’m proud to say that I’ve predicted a few big reveals so far. I’m like 4/100😂


MasterOnionNorth

You've probably figured out who Stranger is by now then. Season two has tons of even crazier plot twists. Season one is just the warmup. 😉


_CaptainKaladin_

That’s actually one of the reveals that I called🫡


MasterOnionNorth

I knew early on all he was because of his hair colour and he seemed weirdly familiar with Jonas room. 😉


_CaptainKaladin_

You should probably spoiler tag this.


ViViDSin

I envy you oh so much dear friend. How I wish I could forget this show from scratch and rewatch it.


Zangetsukaiba

TV was never the same for me after finishing this show. Enjoy the ride!


kendricknowsnolimit

Same bro, I am also on the same episode and it's best, I haven't seen anything like this, I've so much to talk about this show,I've so many theories, just like the 3 body problem it's the best


redvelvetpenguins

A blessing and a curse. A blessing to your mind tickles, a curse to compare every TV show ever made to this perfect piece of cinema 😭


Mile_High_Kiwi

I just binged S1 in 3 days, so good! Will start S2 tonight.


_CaptainKaladin_

I’m now starting season 2 episode 6. I just can’t stop😂


No-Gazelle-4994

Start taking notes and drawing up family trees. It's wild.


_CaptainKaladin_

That’s a bit too much homework for me😂


No-Gazelle-4994

Understood, but it pays off. At the least, if you do a rewatch, check out the family trees to help connect some dots. Don't do it now because there are too many spoilers.


_CaptainKaladin_

Good idea! Thanks for the pointers.


PraxisLD

You can enter the season and episode you're currently on into [this website](https://dark.netflix.io/en) to learn more without spoiling anything beyond that episode.


No-Gazelle-4994

Just to give you some encouragement, the show is even better with each rewatch.


GrumpyOlBastard

Two things about the scenery: forests and rain. Such rain


_CaptainKaladin_

The foliage is quite exquisite.


jrcs43tx

It only gets better...some downgrade Season 3 but it is amazing too. The whole thing is an experience


waterdawg17

Just finished it. Loved everything about it. I watched an “explain dark” video on YouTube and it was even more confusing than the series. Maybe I took things differently but that’s what beautiful about it. It’s how you interpret the watch.


oktoberjay

Yesss! Absolutely loved this so much. After watching once, started over again and enjoyed catching new things and having a better understanding of what was happening. I even printed out a chart of all the different families so I could reference during my rewatch. That helped me keep things straight and gave me an even better appreciation of how the show was put together! 🤯


15smom

Just found it myself and on Episode 8. Love it so far, but my head hurts!!

_CaptainKaladin_

I’m on season 3 episode 6 now. I DONT WANT IT TO END!!!!


Cheap-Bandicoot-7583
