So, 1889 is a series that I have been waiting for a couple months now to appear on Netflix, and it finally made its debut a few days ago.
I didn't know what to expect other than it was some mystery/horror miniseries taking place on a steamship in... 1889 🤣
Set in 1899, just at the turn of the new century, the series follows a group of European migrants travelling from London on a steamship named Kerberos to start new lives in New York City. [source](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1899_(TV_series)
I just finished the fourth episode ( out of a total of 8) and i am really impressed. At first it gave some paranormal genre vibes but it soon it becomes clear that it's more of a scifi, which suits my preferences even more.
While writing this post I found out it's made by the same fellas who made dark, which only makes sense. That's a show I thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish, although i had a hard time following the gazillion characters and timelines. Thankfully, that's not the case with 1889...At least for now 😅
So, 4 eps in and really enjoying what I am seeing. It's a top notch production with an intriguing story so far. I really have no complaints, acting, imagery, pacing, character building, everything I can think of is exceptional👍👍👍
Please note this is a multilingual series. French, German, Spanish, English, Japanese... it has everything! If you are one of those retards that can't follow subs it might not be for you!
I will do a follow up post in a couple days when I have finished the season but for now I can't wait to see how the story progresses. Hopefully it will be an a masterpiece like Dark was!
Excuse me now, got to watch one more ep before hitting the bed!
