Si je ne t'avais pas rencontrée

Anyone who has lost a loved one in death, or is in a relationship which began in deep love but then cooled off needs to see this series. The character development and various storylines are deep. Caveat Emptor: you will cry during every episode.

One top serie not too miss, I am surprised I am the first to give a comment. The acting is top notch and the story is profound.. with a mix of sci fi and tragedy, It makes you think. it is a clear 10 for me.

I created an IMDb account just to write a review about Si No T'Hagués Conegut, or If I Hadn't Met You, if you're watching on Netflix in English.

I always try to find foreign tv shows and movies to watch, maybe because I like to see the difference between directing styles and I love both French and Spanish productions. I stumbled across this show and, by its trailer, I thought it would be just too silly, but decided to give it a try because I'm a sucker for time travel/parallel universe plots and, of course, drama and tragedy.

Yes, it runs a bit slow. I can see how the first episode turned some viewers off, but do not give up! This show is just incredible! It really makes you think about your choices in life and how everything in the future can change because of it. The chemistry between Eduard and Elisa is amazing, even though Andrea Ros is 25 (my age!) and Pablo is in his forties. The sceneries and photography are amazing! Pay attention to how the colours play a big part in each universe. The acting and the costume design really makes you think actors are younger/older in each universe and really give you an idea of past and present.

I did cry a few times, I confess. It's an amazing and epic romance/drama story, with a little sci-fi twist, all without being too cheesy.

Oh, and last advice: watch it with the original audio and English (or whatever language you prefer) subtitles. Catalan is such a beautiful language. It's a mixture of Spanish, French and Portuguese to me and it suits the whole plot so well! It's just not the same without their Catalan nicknames or swear words or songs!

No too slow, not too fast, CC's were easily readable, actors and director were good, not great, the story deserves an A+ and I absolutely enjoyed the musical score and her singing. I think the score kept the story moving along at a steady pace. This is one of the best efforts I've seen by Netflix and hope you have a bunch more like it up your sleeve.

I see some people complaining about this series being slow, however, that's the idea: An ordinary guy realizes he can travel through parallel universes but he is neither a scientist nor he's read about time travelling in his whole life. How on earth would he rush on things? Do you want him to have some powers and by changing one thing being a renowned genius? Sorry, but we have a normal skilled adult man this time!

Anyway, after some "trips" you get kind of mad because the MC doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes. Had I been the scriptwriter, I would have increased his IQ a bit .

It's wonderful when a "new" story starts in other universe because we have to pay attention to every single difference and details in situations, things and characters personalities.

I highly recommend you don't watch this show dubbed but subbed. It's much more enjoyable (and totally different) with the original voices.

I've seen plenty of parallel universes and time travel stuff such as The Butterfly Effect, Mr Nobody, Star Trek, Steins;Gate, Life Is Strange (this is a game) and I have to say this is at the same (and sometimes even a higher) level.

Just be patient with the overused and kind of everlasting drama, it'll all make sense and you'll get some single-episode-cliffhangers which you will either hate or love! LOL
