I watched one more solo episode, then right down the rabbit hole I went, bingeing the rest. I thought the show was great. It maintained it's tense, paranoiac atmosphere throughout.
Melody in her Visser apartment building with floors nobody is to go on, toxic mold that is a drug to some, a bloody seance, the inexplicable happenings in the "community room". Her camera is always on, even at a dinner party. No one seems to mind. Melody's reason for being in the apartment and for trying to interview everyone is that her mother lived there. Could still live there.
Dan in his bunker haunted by his own past and Melody's as he restores her video tapes. Careless of his employer's rules, Dan knocks through walls to explore further into the facility where he's working. He maps out where all of the cameras are in the bunker once he's aware of them. He has an architect's skill in mapping out the facility. He's nice to a rat he finds. I believe he names him "Ratty".
Dan's friend Mark, who has a podcast called Mysterious Signals, runs countless errands for Dan, helping any way he can, even as Dan becomes a bit unhinged by all he has seen.
On the other hand, Melody's best friend Annabel moves into the Visser with her and quickly becomes immersed in the community of the building. She's an artist who is soon driven mad by the place.
We get a peek back at 1924, when the troubles for the site of the future apartments began in a sprawling mansion.
Loaded with fantastic characters, you can't always tell who the good guys are. Except for Dan and Melody and Mark.
