The
times of the binge watching season, Stranger Things Season 2 was
released and it was completed in a single day since it was very much
interesting. Netflix recommended DARK, A German series. When checked the
plot and trailer it feels that it was a usual boy gone missing and how
the police are going to find him. I skipped at first but thought to
check it later.
It
was a wonderful series, Great plot, wonderfully explained. This will be
the only series binge watcher will use his notepad to take notes while
watching the series.
To
avoid that, I took the initiative of sharing it since I already had few
notes of it. It is bit lengthy, Please do read and comment if you find
it useful.
