Proving exactly why Netflix isn't worth subscribing to

How so? KAOS was brilliant. Have you seen it? Season 1 didn't finish on a cliffhanger.

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 13 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I saw it, it was good, but it's now permanently less than 10 hours of show, and it isn't a fully resolved story. That's not what i want from a streaming service.

Fair enough :)

I mean, it was multiple pretty massive cliffhangers...

As far as story arcs types go, Kaos S1 was far more complete than "multiple pretty massive cliffhangers" warrants IMHO.

Even though the creator envisioned 3 seasons to fully tell the story, they did an excellent job in making season 1 entertaining, and worth watching in of itself. Which cannot be said for many other shows...

I absolutely agree that S1 is great television, and the cliffhangers aren't as bad as many other shows. But there are a lot of open questions from the end of the last episode:

  • !Who, or what, is Kaos?!<

  • !Why/how does Caeneus have the ability to return people?!<

  • !Who/what was guiding Prometheus?!<

  • !How will humanity react to Riddy's revelations?!<

  • !Will Dionysus revive Dennis?!< This one never being answered might actually be a war crime according to the Geneva convention
