s01e08 — Episode 8

I liked it, I'm waiting for the second season

There is a seed for the second season. I hope it's being planned! 🙏

I was most worried about Hannah.

Kate's love story has not been revealed to me, perhaps a sequel, if any, will add clarity and colors.

Rebekah gave me strange emotions, but the heroine is certainly interesting. Success and money change a lot of people.

Of course, I was expecting something else, but it turned out well. 😄

I will definitely wait for the second season, because there are still questions.

P.S. I wonder what kind of couple Hannah will have

Is it possible to secretly present something recorded on a dictaphone as evidence?

I didn't expect the series to be so interesting.
I would call it a "success story."
Rebecca is a very charismatic and strong-willed woman. And you can't say that she walks over corpses for her own purpose, but she doesn't consider people either. I liked her character.
I think she rethought everything and finally revealed the secret of the company, that the chosen one is not alone.
I'll look forward to continuing.

To be honest, Rebecca can also be understood as a scientist , at least, that is, the fact that she stole the data still happens.
Otherwise , she lives by the principle of the end justifies the means , which is not always right , of course .

Rebecca's character is like that... It seems that sometimes you try to justify it and somehow understand it, but then it takes you to a new level of abomination. I can understand how the DNA database could have been stolen - the scientist's excitement is understandable. But all that was done after that was the coolness with which she dealt with Ben, with Fabio... It's mind-boggling.

I'm really sorry for Mateus ((
Megan is a sheep, of course, but when I looked at the hair she took from Hannah, I couldn't help thinking that it wasn't her hair-it was too straight and smooth. I'll be waiting for the second season, anyway. Or maybe I'll read a book)

Guys, listen, everything is different in the book. I don't understand how they could have adapted a series with such a heavily altered storyline... In conclusion, I can say: "well, it didn't work out, honestly," although it was interesting at first

I can't understand, since when did the film adaptation of a book begin to take only the title and the main idea? If you're a fan of the book, definitely don't watch it, it's a disappointment. The characters there are 100% more interesting, the plots are more confusing and can be read in one breath. I recommend it 100%.
And at the expense of the series, it's just for one evening, but there's no direct wow effect. There are a bunch of other films/TV series on a similar topic that are much more interesting. He melted me with one word

I had a lot of questions during the course of the series, to which the answer was "apatamushta."
Why is there DNA in the hair, but there is no DNA in the hair? only in the bulb, and it's not a fact that it can be extracted normally, cheek swab is used all over the world, but here the hair? because it's necessary to make DNA easy to steal, for the sake of all these steps with Hannah, Megan, and so on.
Why do police officers openly do things for which they can be legally suspended from service and get away with it? In Britain, if you go to a man's funeral and tell his sister that you "think" that "that woman" "killed your brother," then that's it, dismissal without benefits. Go to a private event just by showing the crusts of a cop? there is no such thing. and it won't be anywhere and never. Either an invitation or a search warrant signed by a judge. And the insidious head of the company is ready for anything, but does not resort to the usual bureaucracy? lol.
It is immediately obvious that if we are talking about genes, then a person cannot have Only One Ideal Partner (at least because of twins), because there are almost 8 billion people in the world, and the company's base does not include the whole world. In that case, why shouldn't Rebecca find another sword?
The dude who killed Mateusz is like, "we were standing, standing, talking, and out of nowhere..." Well, it's just really a piano in the bushes.
Kate caused Mateusz's death with her trap plan, but it doesn't bother her anymore.
Why the hell would Rebecca go to Fabio's apartment? Why did they hide Ben's death?
You could just say that he attacked us out of jealousy and depression, then we waved on the roof and he fell. It is unlikely that after such a fall he would have been adequate or even survived, what is there to find fault with? Fabio called her and died of an overdose? Well, OK, "this is my old friend, he asked for money, I gave it to him." That's it. She's rich, who's going to be there for 20 thousand would suspect. Yes, and with Ben. Well, you fired him, hire him, and your business is booming. Admit that you took the base. Right at the moment, tell me that there will be a lot of money, forgive us Ben. Did Megan start chasing Hannah because she stopped answering her phone? Who does that? They've only known each other for a couple of weeks.
Why would Rebecca want to be CEO of a company? their product is awesome, it doesn't even need to be sold, *everyone* wants to find love, *everyone*, and they are the only ones on the market who really guarantee the result. Anyone can really run the company, and Rebecca can get her shares smeared and live on dividends on a private island anywhere.
Here, one crappy decision leads to another, nothing in this story would have happened if all the characters were at least somewhat sane, in principle, this is also a way to move the plot, it's called the idiot plot, but nothing good can be said about screenwriters, in literature and screenwriting, the idiot plot is where they live. crooked-armed writers and screenwriters who are unable to give themselves any plausible plot, so it all comes down to "and then he did this kind of shit." Don't get me wrong, a hero can be a fool, but that shouldn't be the only engine of the story.
A very cool and intriguing idea - a service has appeared that will find you your ideal partner, how will this affect the world? Good actors. It was beautifully shot. But all the plot twists are hanging on snot and do not stand up to any criticism.

I was madly waiting for the film adaptation of such an interesting book and was very disappointed with the series. Not interesting.

I fell in love with her white suit.🤤🤤🤤

Ohhh, her eyes when she realized that he had betrayed her :((

This series is just a heartbreaker. Did you see those eyes of Rebecca when she realized that her lover had betrayed her? I felt her pain through the screen. Rebecca wanted to make sure that everything went according to her plan, so that her unique project became successful, so that people became happier, especially after she herself knew true love - wouldn't you agree, she pursued good goals? She defended her child and her love at the same time, but unfortunately, the world turned out to be more evil.
Ben was offended that his girlfriend fell in love with someone else and, on principle, did not look for his mate, but showed himself to be possessive and decided to take revenge on her, threatening to take away everything she loves so much. Is the prince noble? - No, the humiliated ego of a man offended by reality. Rebecca's last impulse was her self-defense, and at that moment she did not realize that a second later Ben would fly into the abyss. And there was nowhere else to retreat to, under threat of their own safety.

It's hard to bury your love knowing that there will never be another one like it. I was hoping for a happy ending with this pair until the last moment. I admire Rebecca's composure, and I don't feel at all sorry for Kate, who apparently had a glitch in matching. The lady is very obsessive, knows how to put pressure on the patient and ruthlessly uses it, her speech addressed to Rebbe after the funeral is simply disgusting. Rebecca is a skilled manipulator herself, but she didn't try to hurt the feelings of others like that, it's the meanest thing. I can imagine how hard it was for Rebecca with such self-control to squeeze out those phrases about how much she was in pain. After all, she had really lost a huge part of herself.

If such a thing had been created in reality, would it have been any different? Or would the creator have been doomed to suffer anyway? You can think about it.
I'm looking forward to the second season. Now it's one of my few favorite shows that I watched until five in the morning.
In the very ,

Awesome series, now I'm waiting for the second season

Who was watching carefully, could you explain, otherwise I missed it - who was this man who tried to kill Rebecca and killed Mateus instead? And yet, when Rebecca pushed Ben off the roof, and they decided that he was dead, she said, "we need to get rid of the body, otherwise they'll find out that we stole the base." Hmmm... and what is the relationship? Actually, I missed this moment with the database too - why were they so worried that someone would find out that she was the first to find a mate? Is it because the base is stolen? And then how did they officially gain access to the database? And why would a fake man be involved as her mate, why couldn't Matheus be declassified by pretending that she had only recently found him? And why was there all this fuss about the base, if Ben said he would have given it anyway?

I didn't like it. It was very interesting at first, the idea is very cool. But in fact.. a weak three, as, however, it was appreciated here.

It is a pity that there is no way to delete duplicate messages here.

Yeah, yeah... I was so looking forward to the film adaptation, I was so happy when it came out... But there was a huge disappointment in the case. The only thing from the film adaptation is the idea of DNA and that's it. It was interesting to watch each couple in the book, but here everything revolves mainly around Rebecca. As a result, it is unclear whether there will be a second season, because there are still questions, or whether they will leave it as it is. Although it would be better to finish everything with one season, shooting two more episodes, for example. The only thing I liked more was Hannah's story. As it is, I'm disappointed with the series. I was watching just to find out what would happen to Hannah's mate and whether that bitch Rebecca would be punished.

The moment in the idiot plot that got me was that they launched the app without any identification cards in 2021 in a large number of countries at once, while there is no gdpr, because Rebecca constantly checks herself who has dealt with whom in order to blackmail.

To be honest, I expected that they would refine or replace weak plot lines and the series would be released. I think they should have done so, and what they have shown us now - the story about the creator of the project - should be saved for the second season. And so it turned out to be a very mediocre TV series with a love and detective line, it looks good, but clearly a passing one. The acting is so-so, the plot has gaps. A finale with a start for the second season. It felt like the guys had read Marrs' book, looked at the Cilantro, and were impressed by this. No wonder the rating is so low.

There is nothing left of the book, except for the application in fact. All the stories and characters in the original source are much more interesting.
You can watch it, but I expected more, after all, the idea is so cool, why didn't they shoot clearly according to the book?

The atmosphere of the series is like Spanish, not British)
I really liked it, I watched it in 2 days. The actors are beautiful for the most part, it's nice to watch them. The plot is not bad, addictive. If there's a season 2, I'll definitely watch it!

I haven't read the book, so the series turned out to be very interesting for me, somewhat reminiscent of black mirror. Yes, there were questions that have already been described above, such as the dna of all people on the planet cannot be in the database, then what is the probability that you are registering and a person who is not in the database is intended for you? So will some kind of similar one be selected, or is it just written "no matches"? I don't know if a second season is needed here, but it turned out to be interesting, I watched it during the evening.

The series was closed, and thank God

It's a pity that it was closed. The series is not outstanding and I agree with the critics, but I liked the actors and I would rather watch the second season.

Didn't the criminologists say at the beginning of the series that Ben died before he fell into the river? Because of this, an investigation was launched.🤷 That's why it was necessary to show how he opened his eyes?

The series is not bad. I read the book first, and I was hoping for a +-fast-paced film adaptation based on the book. Although the fact that it wasn't based on the plot of the book upset me a little, but in general, as for me, the creators managed to maintain an atmosphere close to the novel. It's a pity that the series was closed, I would love to watch the second season) The Hannah-Megan line is especially interesting) How would it end)

The entire last episode was devoted to how the viewer should sympathize with Rebecca. Seriously? I'm not going to sympathize with her, I went over her head, I didn't put anyone in anything, I pretended to be a bitch at her best. And then you need to get into her feelings. No, guys, that's not how it works. Well, it would have seemed to us that she was a mercantile bitch, and then "this is the twist" all events would have been shown from a different angle and hop! but she turns out not to be a complete reptile. But no, everything was straightforward along the way, without intrigue: she did what she wanted, covered her ass here and there, and had no qualms.
The man with the poster is a real assassin: he jumped out, hit, and plunged into the bushes. Why hit me again? Indeed, you obviously missed your target, she stands in front of you, alone, defenseless. Not his method. Moreover, it is not clear where he ran away to, given his location. And what was Connor guarding at that time?
The story arcs with couples have not been closed. Were you really hoping for a second season?
And yet the book. It's written "based on a novel." And what's left of the novel? The title and the idea from the annotation. That's about it. The story lines of the couples in the novel are much stronger. The story of the founder of the company is much more interesting. And yes, she did not create such a game there, although she is also not an ordinary young lady.
The case where you need to read, not watch.
If this series wasn't called that, and the novel wasn't referenced, I would have rated it differently.
By the way, compared to "Kindred Spirits," this series was much more interesting in terms of viewing. But that project was more private and did not declare itself as a film adaptation of the novel.

The series was released on 3.

I'm happy for Hannah and Mark. It's good that they stayed together.

With Kate, not everything is clear in the relationship. But I'm glad she's with her soulmate.

And I don't even feel sorry for Rebekah. She messed it up herself, and it all came back to her like a boomerang.

I feel sorry for Mateus, as well as Fabio.

I think it's better to read John Marrs' book. There are 5 main characters and they will have more interesting plots than in this series.

I RECOMMEND everyone to watch the series "The HORRORS OF THE INTERNET" s01e05 — The Seven-Billionth Wheel
This is an anthology, the series is literally 20 minutes long., such a parody of the black mirror, I think you'll laugh. it's just about such an application, where there is only one and what comes of it.

In general, the impression is very ambiguous. The book was much more clever and kept you in suspense until the very end. It is clear that it would not be so easy to film the storylines from it, and the genre of the series would have changed slightly. But it was necessary to try to "go into the wilds" so much.
Like the others, I recommend the book for reading. You can forget about the series, because it didn't turn out to be particularly memorable at all. Even apart from the book, if there were no expectations, my rating from him would not be higher than 3.5 - the picture is boring, the plotlines and the characters' moves are clumsy and rude.

I was expecting a plot based on the book, because the book was delayed, but the series was not, it would have been better if they had shot it clearly according to the book (((

It's a pity that the series didn't have the story of Nick and Mandy. in the first case, his mate caused me bewilderment and even shock, in the second, tears, tears and shock. Overall, the series is interesting. even those who haven't read the book will be interested in the idea of a couple's DNA.

How awful...Take such a gorgeous book in just do not leave anything. It's a different story altogether. Maybe for those who have not read it OK..but I'm very bored, I recommend everyone to read the book, because there each section is just perfect and you don't always know what will happen, but here everything is very predictable ... Unfortunately (

I watched it to the end and I can say with confidence that the series is in many ways inferior to the book. In the book, slowly but surely, from the dialogues of each character, you discover the advantages of choosing a DNA partner and the disadvantages of ordinary couples. And here... The situation with Kate's couple is kind of weird. She's running around Sofia so much, so happy that she's coming out of her coma, but then, for no reason at all, Sofia's brother kisses her (she hadn't seen any hints of feelings between them before) and she's already full of doubts. How is that even possible? Love from the first kiss? There should have been chemistry between them right away! The heroine's throwing was supposed to be shown, but an interesting move was allowed to take its course.
When I sat down to watch the series, I really hoped for other couples (which, in general, I got), but I lacked the dynamics, the disclosure of the universe and the more interesting development of each couple.
I advise you to read the book first, and then watch the series. Otherwise, there may be no desire to read the original at all.

The acting is great, the idea is great too. But overall the score is 4 out of 5

It was clear that Rebekah and Mateus would not ride off into the sunset holding hands, but this ending just killed me. As if my soulmate was stabbed to death (( it's a pity that they closed it - there was an interesting reserve for season 2... As for Kate's second match, I suspected that Sofia sent her brother's DNA instead of yours, as in one of the stories from the book...

I was hoping for a stronger ending.

Hannah is just a crazy egotist, I really regret that she didn't suffer enough from her actions.

God, I wish they'd made a TV series based on the book. There are no words. I've been waiting for the story of the policewoman - and on you.
The book caused me to think so much about morality, duty, commitment, and love. And the series didn't make it at all. It's very bland and damp.
