IMDb Picks: Our Favorite Sci-Fi Mystery Series3 of 18
"The OA" | Now Streaming on Netflix
Plot: Having gone missing seven years ago, the previously blind Prairie returns home, now in her twenties with her sight restored. While many believe she is a miracle, others worry that she could be dangerous.
Our Take: I feel a bit guilty recommending this series. Yes, it’s hands down one of the most ambitious, original, and out-there TV series I’ve seen in a very long time, but it was abruptly cancelled after 2 seasons and ends on such a massive cliffhanger that you’ll be left yelling in dismay at your TV. I’m still leaning towards suggesting you give it a try it anyway, as knowing that disappointment is on the horizon will perhaps soften the inevitable blow. — Vanessa
