The Same Sky (2017)
7/10
Quite good but not riveting

The same sky is an interesting TV show but sometimes quite predictable. It's true that the authors unveil the (supposedly) shocking twist in the last episode (by the way, here in Spain the series has been divided in six episodes one hour long each episode) of the first season but you can guess it easily since the second or third episode. When I was watching it I thought it was going to be a mini series and all the plots were coming to an end and I discovered there was going to continue in further seasons 45 minutes into the last (and sixth) episode. I've liked it but I don't think it's so interesting to make it last more than one season. I admit that there were some story lines that I didn't understand (Why should we be interested in knowing anything else about Emil once his mother has died? What's about that eager informer from the factory?) and at the end I got that these are going to be story lines for the second season. I'm not sure whether I'll be watching it once the second season will be released because I haven't found it so thrilling to wait a whole long year but if you're interested in revisionist European TV shows based in actual events or historic periods maybe you should give it a chance.
