I just finished Unknown.
[SPOILER FREE]
I was going to show restraint. I was going to watch it weekly even if I had access to the final 3 episodes. That was the plan.
That did not happen.
Now I am walking around the apartment, lost. I pick things up, put them down again. I stare at a wall for a moment. Stare out the window for a bit. I am litterally shaking (my asthma meds sure are adding to the experience). I want to go right back to the beginning and rewatch it again. For my sanity, I think it might be better if I never watch it again. I want to take screenshots and post them. I want to write meta and reflections and list sweet descriptions of my favourite scenes. I want to write fanfics. I want to pick it apart and dig into it and learn from how they put it together. I want to leave it untouched, pristine, unchanged. I wish I had millions laying untouched in some bank account so that I could donate it to the actors and creators and all the people who brought this series to life.
This might be the best series I've ever seen.
I'll have to revisit that statement when I've got some distance to the series and can look back on it with a more sober mind, but in this moment... I can't think of a better one.
