Review of Tabula Rasa

Tabula Rasa (2017)
7/10
Suspenseful, with a few cool plottwist, but ultimately unsatisfying and not a must see
7 February 2021
I lost my motivation to continue watching after few episodes, but picked it back up after reading someone's recommendation. The show indeed got better, and it was suspenseful and hard to stop watching. There was a cool plot twist. I thought the show was going somewhere, but as it was nearing the end, the story did not seem to go anywhere worth going. It was neatly wrapped up, but the story or mystery was ultimately unsatisfying. The show was mystery, suspense and intrigue, but behind all of that isn't anything fulfilling. One merit is that it was kind of fun to theorize what happened as little pieces of information about 'what happened' get revealed on a consistent basis. I felt unfulfilled and disappointed as I was nearing the end of the show, and after finishing it.

Skippable, although watchable if you have moderate expectations. The production quality is fine. There is interpersonal drama. It has originality. It is enjoyable.

To give you an idea of my taste, I loved: the shows 'Messiah', 'The OA', 'Sense8', 'Beastars', 'Dark', and the movies 'Interstellar' and 'Arrival'.
