the OA

[alvaroricos]

“I got to see another version of my life here. One in which I was given everything: fulfillment of dreams, my father who loved me. As Prairie, I had none of these things. My life was one hardship after another, and then I met you. Nina saw the whole world. But I saw underneath it. I was pressed down like coal. I suffered. That’s what an angel is. Dust pressed into a diamond by the weight of this world. You crushed me. Before I had the chance to become anything. You crushed me. But you didn’t destroy me. I died and came back to life with something you’ll never have.”

When you watch The OA for the first time vs the second time…

Let’s be honest we were all thinking it

[sharkiegorath]

“The OA was the first thing where when we conceived of this world and many seasons of it and plotted all of the labyrinth math and kind of detail, and then we went and pitched it.

“I remember sitting with Zal at Atwater Village, eating pho, and we hadn’t heard anything back yet. And I just started to cry into my pho, because I was like ‘Oh, shit. We just spent the last three years believing in this story, and if nobody wants to make it, this is the first thing we’ve written we can’t go make at Mike [Cahill]’s mom’s house for like ten dollars.’ ” {inbound 2017}

“I can tell you everything that I did wrong. I didn’t eat when I was hungry. Didn’t sleep when I was tired. Didn’t get warm when I was cold. It made me weak.”
