I absolutely loved it. It’s not so much a mystery as it is a story about a mysterious person, and the loose threads/remaining questions are supposed to be for you to answer for yourself, as with any good piece of literature. I can’t stop thinking about the big reveal and I’m planning to rewatch it soon so I can see how that reveal was hinted and teased earlier.

If you want to see what he’s made of…

Big reveal? Which is what exactly?

This show is written like a poor episode of Supernatural with Sam and Dean cut out of it. Don’t get me wrong, love me some Supernatural, but there are no “big reveals” in that sort of story.

Just watch supernatural— way more enjoyable. They at least are self aware the writing level they are producing is at.
