They’re so cool, right? Especially when they’re ghost ships from 100-200 years ago. Whether the ships are made of steel or wood, just the fact that there was once a gaggle of people in period costumes perhaps haunting the people who find the ship is always intriguing. A new German-produced, multi-language series on Netflix has both ghost ships and people in period costumes. How can it miss? Opening Shot: We see clouds and a churning ocean. “The brain is wider than the sky,” says a woman in voice over as she starts to recite Emily Dickinson’s poem. The Gist: Maura Franklin (Emma Beecham) is on the Kerberos, a migrant ship whose destination is New York. She wakes up from a nightmare that shows a massive black pyramid and the image of the missing ship Prometheus, which has been lost for 4 months with no sign that it sank. On the ship are hundreds of people of different nationalities and levels of wealth, all looking for a new opportunity in the U.S..; the Prometheus was another ship from the same line, so intrigue among the passengers is high. During breakfast, a steerage passenger busts in looking for medical ...

1899 made its debut on Netflix in November, receiving some critical praise. The German-language show is about passengers on a ship heading to New York City in 1899 who come across another boat that was reported missing months earlier. The first season left viewers with many questions that will go answered unless the show is picked up by another service. Netflix didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

If you've just finished 1899, the latest Netflix mystery show from the creators of Dark, you might still be pondering over that bewildering ending. So let's try and figure things out. Warning: Spoilers ahead for the Netflix show 1899. The show starts off as what appears to be a straightforward period piece with a little mystery. But complications start to grow, and the show piles layer upon layer, leading viewers to compare it to the much-buzzed-about drama Let's break down what's going on, with plenty of spoilers. Put on the subtitles First off, before you watch the show, go into your streaming options and change it so the show displays subtitles rather than the dubbed version. As we explain, the characters come from many different countries and speak many different languages. But that's part of the plot -- there are scenes where we need to know that a character doesn't understand another person's language. The subtitles clear that up, while the dubbed version clouds the matter. Most people will get a better experience if they set their audio to "English [Original]" and their subtitles turned on and set to "English [CC]." The plot basics The show is set on the steamship Kerberos, taking a group of people from London to New York. You'll get Titanic vibes -- some of the passengers are rich and living it up first-class in giant private cabins, while others are stuck in second or third class. The characters are from all over the world and have very different backgrounds. View...

We’re living in a good time for fans of puzzle box TV shows. Between Yellowjackets plane crash, Severance’s creepy-ass office, and Outer Range, there’s lots to occupy your fan theory group chats. Joining that ever-growing list is 1899 on Netflix — and it’s a doozy. The eight-episode-long series packs a frankly astonishing number of mysteries and twists into its runtime, making it an ideal binge. I’m still not entirely sure what, if anything, it all means, but I had a blast trying to fit the pieces together. 1899 comes to us from Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar, the same creative team behind another Netflix thriller, the German series Dark. 1899 is a multilingual affair. It takes place on a passenger ship during (obviously) the year 1899, and the vessel is carrying a group traveling from Europe to the US. There’s a newlywed French couple (Mathilde Ollivier and Jonas Bloquet), a brooding German captain (Andreas Pietschmann), a Spanish priest and his spoiled brother (José Pimentão and Miguel Bernardeau), a Chinese mother and daughter (Gabby Wong and Isabella Wei), Polish and English coal shovelers, and a lower deck stuffed with poor Danish passengers, among many others. It’s an ensemble affair, but at the center of it all is Maura (Emily Beecham), an English woman who studies medicine but can’t actually practice because she’s a woman. As is common in these kinds of stories, the characters don’t have much in common at first, aside from the fact that they’re running away from s...

Maura and Daniel in the season one finale of "1899." The final minutes of '1899' season one take place aboard a spaceship Episode eight builds up to the reveal that Maura and Daniel used to be husband and wife and they had a child together named Elliot. Daniel has been suspiciously lurking about the ship and making impossible things happen because he (and Elliot) are trying to help Maura escape the simulation she's trapped in. Maura — who can't remember anything before being on the ship until Daniel tells her about their shared past — believes her father must be the controlling genius behind the virtual reality program. According to Maura, the simulation was created by her father because he was obsessed with running psychological experiments. But her father says that Maura is actually "The Creator" and has everyone trapped inside a simulation she designed with Daniel. When Daniel finally managed to hack into the computer system running the simulation, he changed the coding of certain details in order to prevent the simulation program from simply restarting with everyone's consciousness inside. Daniel's hack enabled Maura to break out of the ship's virtual reality setting, almost like Morpheus' ability to wake Neo up in the real world in "The Matrix." When Maura opens her eyes, she's standing in a strange chamber in a spaceship. The other people who were on the boat with her are there too, but still unconscious and plugged into their individual pods. The ship as revealed in...

When Dark creators Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar set out to craft their sophomore episodic effort for Netflix, they already had the confidence to throw everything at viewers but the galley sink, and their genre-bending 1899 is verifiable proof of such storytelling bravado. From beginning to end, the season’s eight genre-bending episodes buck expectations and straightforward plotting. Its many characters seemingly travel through time, space, and their own memory banks on the way to a truly bonkers finale whose last scene folds the whole shebang in on itself. ( Not entirely unlike Dark itself.) Where some TV shows pull the rug out from under viewers with a last-minute twist, 1899 disrupts viewers’ understanding of what rugs are, and suggests maybe we’ve been standing on objects incorrectly this whole time. So let’s attempt to figure out just what the hell happened to Emily Beecham’s Maura, Andreas Pietschmann’s Eyk and everyone else in the cast, even while knowing that we’re not actually meant to grasp the sum total of what’s happening yet, given Friese and bo Odar’s already conceived three-season plan. (Image credit: Netflix) How 1899 Ended, And What The Creators Said About It 1899’s “The Key” will almost definitely go down as one of the most baffling TV finales available with a Netflix subscription, given its reveals play out like playing three-card monte with nesting dolls. (If that doesn’t make a ton of sense, it’s on brand for this.) None of the Kerberos characters th...
