The music, suspense, drama, mystery, and horror of this show was enough to make me so invested in it and care for every character (except the bad ones who are in it for their own gain). Emotional and extremely compelling, especially the first season. Brit Marling shined wonderfully.
The OA was quite a remarkable series with deep screenplay, intense storyline and marvelous acting.
It totally deserved to be continued, having become more varied and interesting and should have been green lighted with a next chapter. When you have such a deep screenplay, such awesome acting and such spiritual and kind of psychotronic world in hand, you do not close your eyes and just cancel. You value your viewers and bring the series to a proper and satisfying closure.
But then, Netflix is on the driving seat.
- Its season 1 was quite better because of the more compact storyline and the more tangible turns of events.
- Season 2 lost its track a little, got confused, but didn't downgrade in terms of quality. It just got deeper, more intricate and intriguing.

This should not be permitted to happen. This is the second time I have begun a promising series only to find out it is unfinished. If we went to a theater and two-thirds of the way through the movie the lights came on and there was an announcement, "Sorry folks, we decided not to finish this" we'd demand a refund. Unfortunately, I've already invested 10+ hours I cannot get back. There ought to be a law. Netflix is misrepresenting their product and I feel cheated and betrayed. From now on I will not begin a series until I know that it is completed. It's bad enough that I've waited as much as 5 years for the next or final episodes to be released, but to find that the entire program has been abandoned won't happen again to this unhappy subscriber.
I am honestly besides myself about all of this. I watched this a few months ago and ended up deeply enthralled in this storyline and was so confident that there would be a 3rd season. I was honestly so convinced that there would be a 3rd season that I never even considered the fact that it could even be canceled. Needless to say, I was shocked the other day when I heard the news that Netflix decided to cancel The OA. One of the most interesting stories out there and they decide to cancel? And not only was it interesting, but it was also insanely innovative, well done, and likely an actual original concept (never before thought of and/or executed) story that transcended both mind and space? And they decide to cancel?
The second season is better than the first. I felt the first season was a bit drawn out. The second season had me riveted for the entire run. Excellent premise, acting, and camera work. Hopefully, a third season is on the docket.
