Soulmates

After the first episode and reading reviews, i didn't think I would like it. I thought each episode was going to be some version of the first, about regret and "the grass isn't greener" type plots, but they are not. Each episode has a different plot with one common theme but very different stories. A lot of comments about the camera being shaky... I wouldn't have noticed if I didn't read those reviews first and it didn't affect my watching experience. I recommend watching.

Episodes 1, 2 and 6 are worth watching.

One of the other reviews asked why so many of the actors are British? Simple - British actors are really talented. The acting in general is of a high standard - really watchable.

Other reviews have also complained about shaky camerawork - I'm the first to be nauseous from shaky camerawork and it didn't bother me but YMMV.

The main weakness of the series as a whole is that it doesn't really delve into what defines a soulmate. Except for episode 6, the concept of a soulmate is often entirely tangential.

I passed this one by when it 1st aired and then was drawn back to it from other's reviews. It was an interesting idea, in theory, even though it would Not work in practice! And my point was proven in episode 6. All episodes are a new story, so you can watch them out of order. I found that episode 6 was the best. Then episode 2, 3, 1, 5, then 4. Some really good actors you will recognize from other popular shows and movies, so it's a good guilty pleasure worth a 1 time watch.

Disturbing and thoughtful in its crazy premise. Not sure how far you can take it but I'm interested enough to keep watching.

Each episode has own story, one episode is better than the other. The overall concept is interesting. I cannot shake the feeling if this would have been an English production it would have been so much better. It's like the "soul" is missing in the production. Which is an irony, really.
