The concept is very good even if there are some (serious) holes to be filled (like how did he pay for the service in the first place, how changing the past affect everything in the future, and so on). Apart from that, during its 6 part span, the story develops nicely, slowly but surly. The finale is well worth the wait and gives you a glimpse of what may come next.
The protagonist, Patric J. Adams, who made himself a household name with Suits, takes on a completely different character here, a much less amiable figure with a lot of dark shadows in him. That makes his Philip a more believable human being yet, obviously, less likeable. All the other actors are also fine in their roles with the female lead, Karine Vanasse, is outstanding. (Her character's brother, played by François Arnaud, and Philip's borther, acted by Joshua Close, are on spot here as well.)
The production value is up to date, the camerawork is strong and steady (no shaky home video-like BS here), the score and editing are all humble to the story.
All in all, this is a fairly good mini-series, well worth the watch.

I must admit, this show was tough to watch. Not because of the acting or premise, but because of my own past experiences.
The script and acting was so intense, I was immediately drawn in to the story and felt the experiences being played out on screen. I ended up breezing through the six available episodes and was left wanting more, but we never know in this era of streaming where shows are tossed at the first sign of adversity.
If you have a few hours to spare, watch this show and don't stop until you've finished it. You won't regret it when you've reached the end. Here's hoping the show is continued!

What an absolutely horrible depiction of modern women. The story presents women (Evelyn) as selfish and self-absorbed and never happy. A marriage is about compromise and building a family - it is not about "what can you do for me". Sadly, society is far too much about "me".
I think that the best thing that Philip can do is go back in time and erase his relationship with Evelyn. He tries so hard, makes all sorts of compromises, tries to fix all mistakes but Evelyn does not care. How sad that this is not only on TV but is happening more and more in the real world.
The selfishness of women is further displayed in "the baby is mine" because I am the mother and do not care about the father. The father should have equal rights to his child. Thank God that I am not 20 years old in this strange new world.

I will watch anything that has time travel as a premise.
In this one, they made the time travel a simple, yet I think clever idea how they enacted it. To me, the time travel part of these premises is not the method they use to travel back in time, it is what happens after characters get there. The people in the show are not that likeable. None of them. They all have flaws, they all seem selfish, and they all make bad choices. I was really not "rooting" for anyone. I did enjoy each episode. It did not feel groundhog day at all, because it is not like that. A lot of what happens makes sense, the choices our traveler makes, are more realistic then most time travel shows do.
The final episode is brilliant. I loved how they ended it. This is good show. The actors were good and the story was good. I am looking forward to a new story with season two.

I don't know why this show has such a low score. Well done and entertaining series. Hopefully they'll do more seasons. All episodes are interesting but that final episode was spine tingling. I'm still reeling from it as I write this review. Definitely give the series a watch if you can and I wish for people not to always be so harsh. Acting was great and so was the story. I am glad I watched. Now to meet the minimum number of characters for a review. I wish it were less. I am sad it is over and do hope they will do more seasons. They have no background on Plan B so that would be interesting to hear about.
