The OA




This is another one of those shows that leave you with a strange feeling after you watch them. You want to keep watching it… in actually, it’s difficult to stop. Mystery, suspense, you must end up figuring out what the hell is going on here, so you keep watching the whole season as fast as possible, but in the end… it’s nothing but confusing.

I kind of left feeling that I was just as ignorant as in the beginning, despite now knowing the entire story. However, I suppose that the way we face the story is influenced by our own personal beliefs. 

The plot is interesting, filled with mysteries and curious characters with interesting quirks. Many philosophical and spiritual questions are put on the table, but when you watch the last episode, you’ll realize that you still have more questions than you do any answers.

I’m waiting for a second season, hoping for it to bring me some answers, the major one being: is The OA right about her theory as to who they are?

Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting.
