Just binged it. Pretty cool show.
For those who just want to know the mystery, it's just

Spoiler: Big Spoilers

A dude traveling to the past and creating an evil cult that has a nuclear bomb, all to ensure his future happens, including becoming his own ancestor

Was decent - could’ve done without the last two episodes but I guess they had to give Stephen Graham something substantial to do since he’s the biggest star in this.

 

[Ironman]

On episode 3 certainly intriguing but damn they love dragging the mystery shyt

Spoiler

I figured time travel was involved off rip with that EMP like blast that kept happening. Somehow that quantum scientist dude pulled time travel off but it's like he's trapped or something. Still not sure how this old lady in 1941 with the always cryptic dialog and who this "They" is. Cop in 1890 typically drank something he shouldn't have

Regarding 1941

Spoiler

I wasn't sure if he'd really body the little girl but I see they have more plans for both

This is interesting confusing. On episode 5

About to start this

This was really good! It does drag on especially the last two episodes, but those episodes were needed.

 

[Caca-faat]

Definitely enjoyed this series, right up my street.

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

This is ok imo. A bit too convoluted and I am not sure all the logic holds up, but it is entertaining for the most part despite being slow at times.

They did Amaka Okafor dirty with the makeup. shyt was distractingly bad. Especially the aged version

 

[BelieveBeOK]

I enjoyed this.

Two things still don't stack up for me though

Firstly, how did he become commander in the future after the bomb detonation? Why wasn't teenaged Elias arrested on the spot by the detective Shahara?

Also, why on earth did they let her take him in alone and UNCUFFED in the first place?

As far as they know he was involved in a conspiracy to detonate a nuclear bomb, surely at that stage MI6 would have taken over the case.

Secondly, the whole concept of him being his own great great grandfather or whatever just doesn't make sense to me

Other than that though, quite enjoyable

7/10 for me
