Il était une seconde fois

Aesthetic enjoyment, great acting, cool storytelling. Don't understand such a low rating. People are used to being stereotyped :(

Quite nice story and plot. However, there are some unnecessary scene that just doesn't correlate the before and after that scene.

You have to really think about what's happening as you watch, but even then it's hard to follow. (The screen formatting helps you know which period you're in.) It's an interesting premise (and I kept wondering why Vincent doesn't look up lottery numbers and then go back and play them) -- but this series leaves so many things unanswered that it cries for a follow-up. (Why doesn't Vincent run into himself in the past?) Some gratuitous nudity (like the middle aged man in Iceland who just walks through his house in the nude?) and way too much smoking (OK, it's France), and some dumb decisions by the characters kept the level of frustration high.

These series remind me Argentinian movie "Don't Die Without Telling Me Where You're Going (1995) "No te mueras sin decirme adónde vas (original title)" (5 nominations, 5 wins). Il était une seconde fois cas captivated my attention from the first minute. Great acting. Great actors.

... started watching because of Freya Mavor ... was all set to quit during 1st episode ... but she's difficult leaving as this series evidences ... now awaiting 2nd series
