Brought this over from Netflix thread for discussion.
There is a visual quality that either grabs me or turns me off. I'm struggling with both Travelers and The OA where the visual quality seems dingey, although Travelers to a lesser extent. It's as if I'm watching an old show from the 80's, badly in need of being remastered. May not continue them. The visual difference between them and something like Sense 8 or Preacher is night and day. Can anyone identify what I'm talking about which could be attributed to an aspect of how the shows are filmed?
It's almost as if The OA used bargain basement 30 year old film or went cheap on production values.
Night (low def)
And day (high def)...
Waiting impatiently for Iron Fist (and the rest of the Marvel stuff), Voltron season 2, and Stranger Things season 2.
I wasn't sure how much I'd get into The OA, but damn, I loved it.
Probably going to try Travelers this weekend.
