Vortex (2022)
A unique take on the time travel theme
This series is just EXTREMELY well made. It keeps you guessing at two levels: what happened THEN and what will happen NOW!!
This is very original, I had never or read seen anything similar.
An objection like "she could have stayed at home on the fatidic day" is actually taken care of in the early episodes: do something different? She just dies another day....
The acting is good, for once it takes place somewhere that is not Paris, and the secondary characters are as important as the main ones. Watch out for small details such as the cars they drive, I believe they change as the timelines switch (but I'd have to watch again to be sure of that).
Les Papillons Noirs (2022)
Great series highly recommended
Great acting, great twists, great story, nothing to add to that. However I was bit baffled by the sub-plot of the copper... this could have been developed a bit more, as as it is now, this guy chasing 50-year old murders does not make much sense.
Also for those wondering about the Solange actress swap, well, clearly it's because the first "Solange" is a creation of Adrien's mind; it is said at the beginning, Albert does not have any photo of her so what she looks like is left to Adrien's imagination. Later on, when who Solange really is is revealed, it is then possible to put a proper face on the character. So it's no mistake or fault!
