FULL STORY
======================================================================

We think that Dark Matter is one of the best Apple TV Plus shows , and it 
looks like Apple agrees: it's just greenlit the show for a second season. In 
a fun post on X , Apple TV Plus posted the teaser image below and said "in 
this reality, there will be a second season of Dark Matter ". 

If you haven't seen the show you might not get the joke: Dark Matter is about 
alternate realities. It followsJason Dessen (Joel Edgerton) as his existing 
life is stripped away and he has to fight to get it back. Like my favorite 
sci-fi shows, it's dark, complicated and occasionally mind-bending  it's also 
smarter than your average multiverse adventure. Is Dark Matter worth 
streaming? 

Based on the novel by Blake Crouch, who was head writer and showrunner on the 
show, Dark Matter is currently sitting with 83% ratings on Rotten Tomatoes 
from both critics and viewers. 

Many people love it as one their favorite sci-fi shows, but some argue that 
it's perhaps a little overstretched to fill the first season's nine episodes. 
Nevertheless there's a lot to like here. The Wall Street Journal said that 
"there is a high level of suspense, tangible tension created by Jasons 
dilemmas and by the action-thriller aspects of Dark Matter , and that the 
acting is first-rate", while The Age said "Its hard to conceive of a better 
showcase for Edgerton, a fine actor who is rarely ostentatious." (Don't read 
the rest of that one if you don't want some mild spoilers.) (Image credit:

 Empire said that it's "not as ambitious as Foundation , nor as brain-taxing 
as Constellation, " but it "hits the spot nonetheless, maintaining Apple's 
status as the default home of thoughtful, adult-orientated sci-fi ". 

However, not all critics were so favorable. IndieWire said that "its 
unflagging gloom and one-note characters limit its capacity to shake anything 
loose within the audience," while CNN said that "the main problem, which nags 
at this entire subgenre of science fiction, is the sense that nothing really 
matters, since every new door/chapter feels as if its just a step away from 
being rewritten or undone." 

You can find out for yourself: in this reality, season one of Dark Matter is 
available to stream on Apple TV Plus. You might also like Apple TV Plus felt 
like the new HBO, but its golden age could be over 3 new Apple TV Plus shows 
I can't wait to watch in August 2024 Apple TV Plus rumored to be planning a 
major update
