Residue

A visually interesting show, with ideas and imagery taken from other shows. Parts of it reminded me of The X Files and others, Bladerunner. Like everyone else, I think the story should have been resolved, the problem being that some will think it's not sufficiently interesting or original to watch a second season. If there is one. A shame because despite a great looking show, the story really doesn't progress and at times, the plot seemed to drift rather than focus on reaching a conclusion.

The characters are somewhat interesting, though not always believable. It would seem that the series was terminated abruptly as there are all sorts of loose ends in the final episode. The tone of the series is 'dark' an understatement, given that the writers did do a decent job of making the characters as interesting as possible. As mentioned before in other reviews the season is only 3 episodes long and therefore seems to indicate it may not have been well received. Pity, as the series starts to get interesting and reveals some of its secrets in the final episode. Those who are X-files fans will see some familiar tropes being played out here. So enjoy the ride while you can, as it stops abruptly.

I want to start by saying that this is visually and artistically beautiful. The color palette, and the atmosphere is truly great.

The plot is interesting (a random explosion in the middle of a city and a government that is clearly hiding something) and the visual effects are really good. All of the actors give good performances, and though short and slow-paced, its 3 episodes are addictive.

The problem here is that the ending is way too open. It's frustrating, honestly. I think that until this gets a second series, it's not that worth watching, because in the end, you know exactly what you knew when you started the first episode.

Everything here has the potential to work perfectly. It's just incomplete. I'll be glad to watch a second series, if it ever sees the light.

I was hooked...and then it was over? I didn't read ahead to realize there was only THREE episodes. There is no ending, which is a huge drawback. This was an amazing storyline with incredible special effects and great acting. If anything should've been given a full season (and maybe a second) it was this gem. Watch it once, wonder why the production company would think this is a good way of doing things, and then move on.

This show was visually breathtaking. The colour palette in particular was incredible, and even without the intrigue of the plot I would have watched it for aesthetic value alone. I was drawn in by the characters and the grittiness of the setting and subject matter. In fact, this may have even been one of my favourite shows on Netflix. The only (and unfortunately significant) downside is the lack of a satisfying ending. I was genuinely upset when I reached the end of episode 3 only to realise nothing more would follow. Honestly can't remember the last time I was this attached to a show, sad to have to leave it without a sense of closure.
