Watch Dark Season 2 on Netflix now!

Even though I found it surprisingly hard to remember where season 1 of Dark left off, I was completely engulfed once again by the second episode. I had actually tried watching a few YouTube recaps of Dark season 1, but they didn’t help much.

Instead, I would recommend keeping the Wikipedia page for Dark open, so you can keep track of the family trees and various connections. Find the Wikipedia page for Dark here and get updated on how the characters are connected. Remember, there are a lot of characters and you watch them played by various actors in different time zones.

You’ll be reminded of details like the fact that little Mikkel, who was sent back to 1986 in Season 1, grows up as Michael who is the father of Jonas. And Jonas’ mother is actually in love with Ulrich who is, in fact, Mikkel’s father. But (of course) none of them knew that Mikkel is Michael, who was sent back to 1986 and grew up in the “wrong” time zone.

Except for Mikkel/Michael himself who took his own life as season 1 began.

As the tagline for season 2 of Dark goes; Everything is connected. And it really is!

Also, do remember that we don’t have any of those Back to the Future rules applying to time travel.

A person can quite easily interact with themselves at various ages when traveling back and forth between the time zones. In fact, several of them do. After all, who better to trust with your own masterplan?! Oh yes, season 2 of Dark is a wild ride!

Dark: Season 2 will be out on Netflix globally from June 21, 2019.

Release date for Season 3 of Dark?

Season 3 of Dark should be out on Netflix in 2020. We don’t know the specific release date for Dark season 3 yet, but it should be in less than a year since both season 2 and season 3 was greenlit at the same time. Also, the storyline of Dark is clearly a trilogy now which is obvious throughout season 2.

Personally, I hope a 2020 release date for season 3 of Dark is in January. But I doubt we’re that lucky.
