Like a dream, nothing initially makes much sense in this complicated drama but as the series unfolds and more and more pieces are fitted together, we get to form a grip on what Topeka is and the importance of the boy in Tessa’s dreams.

Splitting time between the characters and having them slip in and out of dream state keeps viewers on their toes, questioning everything that can be seen. Having three main characters could prove to be a risky move but I take my hat off, somehow they manage to do it in this sci-fi series.
