A Billion to One

I'm really enjoying this series and hope there is a second season. It's an intriguing premise with a diverse and interesting cast of characters. The episodes are pretty short, but they suck you and quickly you can watch 4 or 5 without even noticing, very binge worthy.

The locations, lighting, music, sound and cinematography are all top notch. It's cool watching a story that takes place, at least for the viewer, all over the world, would be curious where the filmmakers shot the film, because the footage in Bangladesh looks as authentic as the footage in France. The story sucks you and keeps you guessing. Highly recommend.

This is an intriguing show that will make you want to watch episodes on end. I really enjoy the short episodic format as you can watch it while commuting( on the phone) or if you have only a short time for TV The international multiplot story gives it a solid and engaging story arc

This was a great gem to stumble upon. I watched all 13 episodes of the first season in one viewing. The episodes are compact and pithy. The central theme of a contest to win billions is used brilliantly as a device to weave together stories from around the world. Each story feels authentic and true to the culture in which it exists. The drive for cold hard cash quickly leads into much more poignant topics of passion, survival, sexuality, homelessness, sex-trafficking, free-will or the lack thereof, relationships, trust, and death. No stone is unturned in this ambitious drama, which not only reaches far, but does so with humor, verve, and excellent production value. Great writing, excellent performances, and wonderful views into cultures from around the world, and the themes that unify us all.

This is an excellent idea for a series, with an intriguing premise, strong performances and a vast representation of characters from a number of cultures, social and economical backgrounds. This show delves deep into its subject matter and does it really well.

Interesting premise. I was only going to watch one episode but ended up watching them all. I recommend this to anyone you is looking for something different. Good acting and great production values.
