1899 | Netflix

Episode 1
The song at the end is one of my favourites, White Rabbit, Jefferson Airplane!
Great start and quite atmospheric . The scene is set for the story to unfold. Definitely watching the rest of this.

Think I got this right - there are 2 English audio options for this; original and dubbed - original some characters speak English but other characters speak a variety of languages - while dubbed those are replaced with all English.

Yup, opted for English original. Two episodes in so far, full of intrigue :)

Anyone who hasn't seen Dark, you're missing out!
 
Watched the first episode last night and so many questions that I already want answers for, if it wasn't so late when I finished it I would have gone into episode 2 but it's one that requires your full attention to pick up the little details, definitely going to try getting the rest of it finished over the weekend.

Episode 2 has even more questions and quite an ending. It certainly needs your full attention and no more than two episodes per viewing.
 
4 episodes in. Things get much weirder and very few answers yet.

Still quite gripping, but it's a very slow burning series. Much like Dark, but it draws you in.

Loving the music at the end of each episode too.

The music is great, here all the tracks:

  • 1899 theme song: “White Rabbit” cover performed by Eliot Sumner
  • “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane – featured in episode 1
  • “Child in Time” by Deep Purple – featured in episode 2
  • “The Killing Moon” by Echo and the Bunnymen – featured in episode 3
  • “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper” by Blue Öyster Cult – featured in episode 4
  • “The Wizard” by Black Sabbath – featured in episode 5
  • “All Along the Watchtower” by Jimi Hendrix – featured in episode 6
  • “The Wind (Of My Soul)” by Cat Stevens featured in episode 7
  • “Starman” by David Bowie featured in episode 8
 
Overall I enjoyed it be wasn't as good as Dark. I started to get a bit bored after episode 5, some of the characters I just didn't find interesting and we had 2 episodes where all they did was shovel coal in the engine room. The relationship between the chinese lady and the french guy was plain odd, they didn't understand a word they were saying yet understood each other.

How on earth would they ever do a season 2 from that?!
