I enjoy it BUT, I got peeved with the entire thing when someone was getting angry and doubting one of the returned was hearing voices and other spooky shit.
They disappeared, mid air, mid flight and came back five years later having not aged a single day but anything else on top of that is unbelievable? Hearing voices etc was just crazy and impossible?

Love it!!! Stick with it (Netflix, series 1, Now TV series 2 and 3, Netflix series 4) if you like it this far. Which characters/ storylines/ elements of it are you especially enjoying?

ShitMermaid · 22/09/2023 20:54

There’s a Subreddit about it which is funny. They do an episode by episode break down of what’s happened.

I love it. I watch it when I work out on the treadmill. I'm on series 3.

Lovelyjubbbly · 22/09/2023 20:59

@Piemam I love Ben and grace! But I really do hope she stays with him I do think she loves the other man in her life but I’m not sure what she will do.

so far so good!!

I love it snd have watched all the episodes. I'm so glad ndtflix gave it an ending rather than leaving it cancelled.

AnonAnonandAriston · 22/09/2023 21:13

I loved it and binged all the series recently, it does get a bit silly in places but they end it really well (which makes a change for a series that was cancelled!) Enjoy!

DuranNotSpandeau · 22/09/2023 21:14

I loved it but by the beginning of the last series it gets a bit "really? REALLY??"😂

Scaredmuch · 22/09/2023 21:15

I binged it when I had covid. It kept my interest when other things couldn't! It did get a bit silly by the end and became a bit harder to follow but that could have been the fever...

toadasoda · 22/09/2023 21:20

Loved series 1 but was disappointed couldn't get 2 or 3 on Netflix. Ben kind of annoys me to be honest.

Surely2023IsTheYearForMyRainbowBaby · 22/09/2023 21:46

Loved it. Netflix cuts a complete season out though, think it's season 2 but you can watch them all on sky extreme

YokoOnosBigHat · 22/09/2023 21:52

I watched series one when it was first on but never perused it after I heard it got cancelled. Now I know it has an ending I will carry on!

Freezingcoldinseptember · 22/09/2023 21:53

Started off good. Got irritating as hell. Every sentence included the phrase the /a calling...

Mindovermatter247 · 22/09/2023 22:31

Amazing series…. It’s was Jared and Michaela for me… and Jared is defo great to look at 🤭

Pallisers · 22/09/2023 22:49

Love Jared but Zeke isn't bad looking either.

SheilaFentiman · 22/09/2023 22:51

It was excellent! Make sure you can access all 4 series though

ClifftopView · 22/09/2023 23:58

I really enjoyed it but haven't watched the last season. There was such a big gap before that one came up, I've just mentally lost the continuity. And it was getting a bit weird.

Piemam · 23/09/2023 03:05

Great to see so much love for this show! @Lovelyjubbbly, I know what you mean; imagine having your reality tipped upside-down when you love your boyfriend but obviously never stopped loving your presumed-dead husband... it is one of those shows where you have to give in to the concept of it, like the callings for example. I like the blend of science, mythology and real-people stuff!

idiotfacelicker · 23/09/2023 07:05

Loved binging this who with my daughter. It's like if Lost combined the the cheesiest US daytime soap.

Bens acting is hilarious (every scene of his ends with a close up to his concerned face).

You need a drinking game for "calling" and "lifeboat"

For me the ending was perfect (although I know it's quite marmite).

Lovelyjubbbly · 25/09/2023 22:00

Is it just me or is Ben in manifest super sexy! 😂😂😂😳

So true 😆

I liked it but agree the later series got a bit too daft.

TiredMum30 · 25/09/2023 23:34

I liked it but i thought it was a little too drawn out, particularly the last series, i felt it was a bit of a chore to finish it (I won't go into detail as I don't want to give any spoilers). Ben also really annoyed me from start to finish.

It's just you! You'll be cringing at the sight of him by season 4 🤣

ButterfliesandMoths · 25/09/2023 23:37

Binged watched it a couple of months ago, loved it.
