Looks effective; definitely another Apple TV+ trailer that has me intrigued from the off.

Has anyone started this yet? Been burned by a few series lately that looked excellent in trailers but were just awful.

I only watched the first episode tonight and I'm intrigued: there are some dangling threads that I'm curious to know what and where they go; the use of constantly changing time periods kept things feeling unbalanced, while the supernatural aspect wasn't overdone just yet. It was a very handsome episode too, a very rich almost cinematic look to it all.

I'd say if you watched and liked The Shining Girls, it's in the same vein so far, if only superficiially.

Been a while since I've been as gripped by a show as this..

.. slow burn but proper unsettling throughout.

Also Future Islands fans may spot a familiar face towards end of episode 3.

Yep liking this one so far, 3 episodes in.

I'm struggling after 3 episodes, it's all a bit grim and depressing with not much in the way of plot other than grief and some abstract fantasy elements

Excellent show, finished it a while back, knew nothing about it.

It gets better but yes it can be very depressing and is not for everyone.
