Awesome / Dark (2017)

• Awesome Music: “The Labyrinth Song” by Asaf Avidan is just so apposite one wonders if the whole series was built around it.
  Everything is quiet and l'm not exactly sure
  If it really was your voice I heard or maybe it is a door
  That's closing up some hero's back on his track to be a man
  Can it be that all us heroes have a path, but not a plan?
• Claudia Tiedemann solidifies her status as the ultimate Big Good of the series, revealing how she's been playing her own game this entire time. Using nothing but her wits and careful journalkeeping, she's been able to determine how the time loops work, how Eve has been manipulating them, and she's the only one who realizes the true origin of this entire mess. The woman who seemed like yet another pawn for Eve for a good part of Season 3 manages to end the suffering of both universes using the same loophole Eve did and of course, ensure the survival of her daughter.
• Awesome Music: After three seasons of carefully chosen but invariably gloomy-verging-on-wangsty music, the series goes out with two songs that almost seem (whisper it) hopeful; a cover of the evergreen optimistic “What a Wonderful World”, and Nena’s bouncy, poppy “Irgendwie, Irgendwo, Irgendwann”.
