The first season of Breathe, in my opinion, was a dud. It never felt like a series that got developed using the possibility of the series format. It was in a way constrained to just two tracks that had familiar or assumable trajectories. I am talking about the first season of Breathe in the review… Continue reading Breathe: Into The Shadows
