By the end of the first episode you have little idea what’s going on; by the end of the fourth show the series is starting to gel a bit, but questions have been piled upon questions and soooo many characters have been introduced you need a scorecard.

After the four episodes made available for advance viewing, things were clarifying somewhat and an addictive quality was emerging, but not everyone may get that far.

The only thing that’s crystal clear is that this won’t be a short trip, so it’s up to a viewer to decide if the show is languorously absorbing or just painfully slow. Two episodes in, my vote goes to painfully slow, while certain others may be tantalized by Falling Water’s many secrets.

The mystery along with its intriguing premise might have been enough, but the main problem with the show is the slow pacing. It’s easy to drift.

Promising a web of Jungian symbolism, Lynchian surrealism, and Abrams-y subterfuge, but nearly no compelling characters, little narrative cohesion, and blah cinematographic vision, it represents the preposterous pinnacle for the if-you-confuse-them-they-will-come trend.

Perhaps, if one took copious notes, consulted the show website’s “About” page, and discussed each element thoroughly in a subReddit, the convolutions in Falling Water would yield rewards. As it is, it’s hard to imagine finding the time for this dull, plodding thought experiment.

Most bad shows are bad because their creators have no imagination and make obvious choices. Falling Water is bad because its creators have attempted something very complicated but failed to ground it in any credible way. They’re in way over their heads.

There was something very intriguing about this. I watched the first series in one night, happily even eagerly consuming each episode. I liked the fact it wasn't fully explained and had an air of mystery around it. However that evaporated almost instantly with season 2. The first thing was the replacement actors, they lacked the charm and indeed character of the originals. It was around episode 3, that I realised the original showrunner had be replaced too, and this was evident from the lack luster plot development, where season 1 had mystery season two had horror. It felt weak, and half hearted. So I'd rate season one 7.5 out of ten, but season two 3.5. A real shame.
