Actors - awful, acting - really awful, directing - pathetic, editing - unprofessional, translations - cliche cheesy bad. But the plot is compelling. Takes forever to get started. Uneven with senseless filler. The concept is what kept me watching, but I struggled all the way through.

Same. Not only that, but by the end of S2 I found myself weary of even the main theme: that nothing can be changed. I mean, they were beating a dead horse, like, perpetually. This is the irony of this series in some ways: it's a pretty smart and interesting concept that they decided to over explain repeatedly.
I came here to post my own thread but you pretty much said what I was thinking. The only place I have a bit more grace is with the acting as this is a foreign series for me, so I'm sure a lot of the acting is lost in translation. This is either the worst best series I have ever seen or the best worse series I have ever seen. Crazy!

I have subtitles on auto download. Does not match what is spoken. The series is in German originally. Dubbed into English. But I find it HILARIOUS that the translations do not match. Different people translated the audio section, and the subtitles. Being fluently bilingual (English/Latvian) I know very well differences in European language structure and English structure. Some of the translations are hilarious. I sear they have used translators from Russia (cheap labour) that claim they are fluent in English and German. Please be with the sending of the monies now!

I watched it the same way (with English dub and English subs) and noticed the obvious differences. Actually, I appreciated both because they gave different "flavors" to the scenes. Being a native English speaker with a limited understanding of a few other languages (Spanish, French, Greek, etc) I know it is often difficult to translate well. Since you have a better understanding, did you have any thoughts about which was more accurate between the dub and the subs?
Back to the point I actually thought about re-watching part of an episode in German without subs just to see how much that impacts how I would experience the acting. It is really hard to do overdubbing in such a way that it communicates the story without being a distraction.

It seemed that the written translations had more vulgarities than what was said. The spoken "You're not serious" would come out written "What the fuck are you talking about?"

Interesting...maybe just pandering to western audiences?

I agree. I really don't understand why people like this TV show so much. My coworkers told me it was very good, checked it's ratings on the Internet and it got quite big ratings, so I thought it would be something very good. Started watching it, but I didn't like it. Shallow characters and nothing much happens in this TV show. Just some people jump from present to past or future and that's it. That's the whole plot. And those flashbacks from past to present and etc confused me more. There wasn't even one episode that I would say, let's watch another episode. I quit watching it in the middle of second season. I couldn't tolerate more boredom. I really didn't care what would happen in this TV show. It's just about people jumping in parallel worlds and that's it. The only thing I liked about this TV show was intro soundtrack. I can't believe that this TV show is still ongoing and TV show like "The OA" got canceled, which was ten times more interesting and tense and it's about parallel worlds as well.

I think what is interesting about the show is the concept, the "town secret" intrigue and the larger narrative hiding just under the surface of normal life. This is reminiscent of LOST, Stranger Things, etc. I think the concept--if redundant toward the later episodes--is worthy, the execution was just a bit lacking.

I just started Stranger Things and it feels much more interesting than Dark. I don't know, but for me nothing was intriguing or interesting in Dark. Can't say same about Stranger Things. It's definitely more interesting, everything is on going in every episode and it makes you to watch another episodes and it doesn't leave you with "what the heck I just watched?" like Dark did to me.

I have tried to pick this show up again for the new season (3?), but I am having a really hard time. Things are so complex and layered with so much actor overlap (by design) that it’s really hard to get into it...or even care too. It kind of reminds me or a a very complex serial. That said, I keep putting it on...and falling asleep.

I totally agree with you. The OA was a hidden gem on Netflix. I can't describe by words how much I liked it and how much I was sad when I heard they canceled it. I've seen a lot good TV shows canceled (I loved "Chambers". They canceled it too) and Netflix releases a lot of garbage TV shows lately. Sad, but what can we do?

The show is absolutely brilliant but you HAVE to pay close attention because there's a lot going on. I've rewatched the entire series and discovered more subtleties. Dark and Hannibal are my two favorites series' of all time.
