Constellation

Well got through this after we agreed a have a shot of JD every time the irratating character Jo shouted "R-lice" {Alice} after three episodes those who all took part where definitely in an "alternate reality!" even if it wasn't the same one as the show was about ! Think at one point it was 30-40 times in 10mins!! After which my Brain was left on the ISS revolving round Earth ! Anyway would have been a 10/10 if they had been a Season two ! Maybe a good thing as would have had to watch it from a hospital ward if the game continued lol !!! Upwards and onwards Apple+ Scfi!!! And happy to do more drinking games if they deliver quality like this !!

And the reason is the last episode, the season finale. At least I believe it is the main reason, although I suspect quite a few people could not get past episodes 3/4. Which is a shame, as the series pick up from then onwards until espisode 7, which for me was the best, along with the intriguing opening episode.

So what is the issue with the season finale? I have written an extensive review of that episode, but to quickly sum I up (and also to have no spoilers, as there are quite a few in that one): it feels cheap. Like a low budget sci fi/horror mix, one that would go straight to TV. We have this great premise, this solid cast with some brilliant actors in it (I am a big fan of Rapace by the way, she is so underrated), some solid development...and you choose to go with characters doing the most illogical things and creating even further mess, along with stuff just...happening, to advance the plot, with no real explanation.

It is obvious this was destined for at least one more, if not numerous future seasons, but considering the ratings here, and no official confirmation from Apple, even though this TV series were close to the top of the rankings for some time, I am beginning to doubt those future seasons would happen. And I would hate that, as there is still hope for this, to turn out great. But it could have worked just as well, if not better, as limited TV series,8, 10, or even 12 episodes. Instead the creator decided to make the season finale a mindless filler not answering any questions, and creating new ones, including with the final scene, again completely unexplained and looking like it's there to be a final beg for renewal.

I have been waiting for a sci-fi this well-written and thought-provoking. I feel like anyone who is confused simply isn't into sci-fi (or quantum physics, for that matter). It reminds me of Fringe in a lot of ways, Jacob's Ladder, in others. The only thing that disappoints me is the lack of marketing/buzz surrounding this amazing series. I had never heard of it when I just saw it while randomly searching in the sci-fi category on Apple TV+. I really hope we'll get a second season, because this is exactly what I've needed. Amazing acting, writing, direction, etc. 10/10 Highly recommended if you love multiverse or many worlds theories. Just fantastic.

Great visuals and suspense , Solid start.

A promising start to the series. Heart pounding edge of your seat, mind-bending thriller from the get go.... It's one of those series that requires your full attention or you're going to get lost. I binged the first three episodes and watched them again. It's that good. I put this one on the same ranking with " Gravity" "Arrival" and the "martian" Noomi Rapace is phenomenal as always. Beautiful location, nicely paced thriller. Kept me glued from the start, couldn't wait for the next episode.

Fingers crossed hopefully the rest of the series maintains the hype and pace and keeps getting stronger.

Don't let the sci-fi elements mislead you. This show is a very dry mom-child drama, stretched to absurdity, with a few sci-fi teases here and there in the background to lure in gullible viewers like me and you.

The most interesting thing about it - the phenomenon - was not explored at all. The most interesting characters that showed at least some desire to deal with it - pushed to second class citizen status in favor for the obnoxious child and mom doing the you're-not-my-mommy BS.

0 entertainment value.

Fringe did this concept better and delivered far more entertainment than this catastrophe. Hell, even that episode in Star Trek: Discovery, where they go to the fascist reality was far more enjoyable than this.

And why is it named Constellation? Even the title is bad and misleading.
