    Surrealist series about dreams, murders, mystery and bad script. Nothing is consistent, nice or logical. The first few episodes introduced the viewer into a complicated storyline, but the last episode does not explain anything.

    For OA watchers who loved uncovering a deep mythology, but after all the build up got blue balls from the ending... this show provides a deep mythology, but the build up leads to climax and completion. I'm a bingafile and not a profound critic, but after OA's cringe worthy ending, this show made me feel whole again.

    Falling Water starts off feeling like a slower version of Twin Peaks. Over the course of the season it introduces some amazing concepts but the pace never moves beyond a slow crawl. For a show with such a deep and complex back story, poor writing results in a shallow experience with no real conclusion.

    Promising a web of Jungian symbolism, Lynchian surrealism, and Abrams-y subterfuge, but nearly no compelling characters, little narrative cohesion, and blah cinematographic vision, it represents the preposterous pinnacle for the if-you-confuse-them-they-will-come trend.

    By the end of the first episode you have little idea what’s going on; by the end of the fourth show the series is starting to gel a bit, but questions have been piled upon questions and soooo many characters have been introduced you need a scorecard.

    There's something going on here. What it is is completely unclear in the first episode.
