Trivia

Originally the show runners Baran Bo Odar and Jantje Friese were asked by Netflix to create a series from their movie Who Am I - Kein System ist sicher (2014). They were not interested and proposed to create something new: They already had plans for a series inspired by The Missing (2014) and a time travel movie and merged both ideas to finally pitch DARK.

Goofs

When characters use telephones throughout the series, the typical American "warbling" ringing tone is heard instead of the German "beeping" ring. Also, when speed-dialing is used, the touch-tones are heard in rapid sequence as in America; phones in Germany don't do this. See more »

16 February 2021 | by francysalaSee all my reviews

I have watched many series, some of which are considered the best in history (Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, Lost, The Wire) but I never rated any series 10/10 Dark takes it all.!! Everything in this series is astonishingly perfectly made. The story is breathtaking, perfectly executed and the ending is flawless. The story is complex and intricate but the chances of finding plote holes are nil. The cast is perfect and the acting is really really good. Direction and cinematography are phenomenal. The music is perfect, in Dark there are some of the best songs I've ever heard. This is definitely the best show I've ever seen.
