Hailed as one of the best sci-fi novels of the decade, Dark Matter is a story about the road not taken. The series follows Jason Dessen, a physicist, professor, and family man who – one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago – is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the multiverse of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of mind-bending realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.

REALLY??? People liked this? What a billshut fairytale ending. How could Daniella and Charlie be sure that they got the right Jason? No way are hundreds of "clones" (for lack of a better word) going to agree and accept that fate. They all think they are the rightfull residents of this reality. Even if they did, then why make the family leave? What are hundreds of Jasons going to do in this world? No job, wife and kid disappeared, blood all over the house. Friends, family, detectives with lots o'questions.
I have to admit, despite my difficulties accepting many details in this show, it did hold my interest and I will be back for season 2. I don't know why so many think this was it. It says returning 2025. I just hope they think it through a little better next time. Too many writers can spoil the stew I think.
Yay! Free hot chocolate... sign me up.
Still here but... still can't figure out how there's a box in every world. Some are out in a field, in a basement, looks like the 3rd story of a warehouse in Jason A's world. So, who built them in the first place if nobody has that technology in these different dimensions?
Where'd they get the money for restaurants and hotels? They said they couldn't use cash because of anomalies. So I guess their credit cards work? Huh.
And, the biggest question of all... where does Amanda figure she's going to end up if and when they find Jason's world? Is she staying with him? "Hi Honey, look what followed me home. Can I kee her?" It's been all about him with no thought to her plight.
