Old Ulrich is played by a famous German actor, so I immediately recognized him. Otherwise I might have had the same reaction since they really resemble each other very much in this show.
@@frankj10000 I got the sensation from his introductory scene that this actor was a big deal in Germany. He's certainly got that gravitas like the greats I know from Hollywood. The show is full of beautifully played small parts. I think Bo is a really talented director in many ways, and directing actors themselves must be one of those great strengths of his. Also, what other shows are this long and directed by one single person all the way every single episode? That's very rare right?
Season 2 is so great. They solve a few mysteries to keep you entertained. But they also introduce so many more. but mostly it's awesome casting and really cool timetravel moments. Like "I need to get back to the 50s, so I can't give you the time machine now. But I will bury it and give you the coordinates to dig it up 33 years later."
About European casting awards, The Bafta TV Awards have a category since 2020 for best casting for a scripted program, though I'm not sure if the nominees can be from outside the UK. No nomination for DARK either way though. There are international Emmys but they don't have a casting category, I believe. The credit goes to casting director Simone Bär, who sadly passed away a month ago, only 57 years old.
I feel it may take many decades to see casting like this that is so perfect in likeness and acting ability simply in terms of the sheer immense number of large roles with up to 3 iterations. Perhaps it may be a century or more. There's not that many time travel sagas like this.
I just gotta give props to the actors and directors for making characters transitioning to their older versions so seamless. Like Jonas is really starting to talk and sound like older Jonas. Claudia is my favourite character and now she's really starting to girlboss around. I also like Hanna, but in a really weird way lol And even with everything he's done, I do feel quite bad for Ulrich being trapped in the past and growing old being locked up :(
@@ShotoTodoroki-bh7pf They are not going to get it. I didn't get when I watched. They go over that reveal in such a weird way, that makes you think it wasn't a reveal even.
Old Ulrich is portrayed by veteran German actor Winfried Glatzeder who has been working in television and film (majorly TV though) since the late 1960s (in East Germany back then). So it is indeed a different actor.
Jup. While a big part of the cast are rather new faces in the German acting world (especially because of the age of a considerable part of the main cast), among the older actors are major names that any German that consumes any amount of German TV will recognize. The other household name would be (even though basically completely obscured by the mask) Adam, who is played by Dietrich Hollinderbäumer. But even the rest of the cast, you see more and more. Recently, I saw with my mother that young Mikkel actor was on the Traumschiff xD
@@Mysterios1989 It blew my mind back when I found out Adam is played by Dietrich Hollinderbäumer. Pastewka's father in the german comedy show Pastewka...
@abonny when I first saw him, I recognised the voice and googled who it was. The show has really great casting especially about the different versions of the characters.
NO ONE ever in the history of the series ever thought sooo much about this single shot of a drone!! Stop it! It was simply there to show the viewer "Ohh, now we're in the future!"
@@bibelwissen2.0 She's unironically one of my favorite characters in the show, though. She's quite complex, has an interesting arc, and every time she's on screen I'm like "what's this evil bitch gonna do now?"
She definitely has a personality disorder and also a very unhealthy obsession with Ulrich. Other than that I don't see her as being inherently "evil". Wouldn't want her (or somebody like her) in my life though.
8:30 gretchen is a dog from the 50s living in the 80s owned by her old owner's older self and is now being held by her owner's even older self while her current but older owner is having a conversation with her old but even older owner. i love time travel
As a 4th year University Physics student... Nobody understands Thermodynamics. We just try to learn that shit for 5 minutes so we understand the shit after that. You guys speaking so much Thermodynamics genuinely had me shocked. I am impressed. You guys understanding Thermodynamics is the most impressive thing you have ever done on this channel to me. FUCK THERMODYNAMICS
Heyyyy physics stud! I'm a 2nd year and I've been a fan of the show for a while and yet I'm still looking for someone who's studying physics to talk to about Dark. Nobody I've talked to irl on my courses so far has seen it. Language majors who've seen it don't count. Anyway what I'm getting at is I think Dark has surprisingly not awful physics. At the least it doesn't use mumbo jumbo and actually has relevant terminology. Tannhaus' brief explanation of the Tannhaus machine was among the most nearly scientific explanations of science plot devices I've heard. What I'm getting at is I get the impression Jantje really did read a lot about the subject and uses actual understanding in a creative writing context to stretch and bend real stuff that she actually has a valid understanding of. Of course something like the Expanse is much harder more solid sci fi. But the physics and the philosophy of physics in Dark is about as good as I would want out of a fictional story.
@paul-juniorblack6151 It was pretty good, except they said entropy is always decreasing in a closed system. That might have been a gaff. I don't think they were getting into the Clausius inequality, either.
I feel so bad for Ulrich. He's been stuck in the past and that too in an asylum. And i finished the whole season thinking the young and old Ulrich were the same actor. They look same!!
Winfried Glatzeder, who plays Old Ulrich, is a very famous East German actor. Born in Poland, but spent most of his life up until 1982 in East Germany before moving to West Germany, he has over 100 acting credits stretching back to 1965. His son, Robert Glatzeder, has over 40 acting credits, starting before his second birthday.
Old Ulrich is played by Winfried Glatzeder, on of the most renowned and acclaimed german actors, and he just happens to look like Ulrich. It's amazing they got him for this.
Not surprised they weren't paying enough attention to it, seemingly no one ever does, but the girl from the future shouted "Jonas!" after he went through the god particle when she shouldn't have known his name. She was asking who he was the whole episode, but that doesn't register as important for a lot of viewers.
I'm pretty sure they just told each other their name during the time they were together, before Jonas went into the "blob". I mean, it would be the most normal thing to do for anyone in that situation to at least reveal your name if not anything else about yourself. Because I don't think they were just silent the whole time. So, just because we don't see it, doesn't mean it doesn't happen. That's why I never thought it to be unusual that she said his name.
@@beni6493 I don't know if you've watched the show, but a non-spoiler answer is that her saying "Jonas" implies that she knows who he is, when he never told her. This means that she has met him before, an older version of himself who told her who he is or that someone from her past told her who Jonas is.
@@frankj10000 Sure, but the show made it a point that Jonas refused to tell his name, which is why that particular scene holds some weight. They show everything else, in minute detail. Even things that might not happen for another season or two. Like the guys pointed out, it wouldn't be amiss if that apple Noah threw away in 1987 would grow into a tree in modern day, that's the level of detail they show. So it would be odd to make a point of showing his refusal to say his name for 2 episodes, then not show when he told her...
They went for a good part of the cast with A-tier German actors. Because of that, anyone German immediately recognized old Ulrich, even if you don't know the name Winfried Glatzeder, as he belongs to the old guard of the German acting cast.
In the third season, there are two different father/son actor duos who portray older/younger versions of the same character. But other than that, all the other actors are un-related as far as I know. Just amazing casting.
I am still surprised that you guys haven't listened or showed any sort of reaction to the Intro theme song, it's one of the best Intro I have ever heard.
The burn of finding out who the woman with Jonas is at the end of the episode is one that not a lot of people get or realize, but it's a HUGE one. Hopefully the guys figure it out or have it spelled out for them once the series is over.
It's a bit reductive, but generally the second law of thermodynamics states that entropy in a closed system (the universe) always increases towards the future. However, in the dark universe time travel is possible and energy can travel from the future to the past, thus contradicting this principle.
The DARK series received an award from the *Grimme-Preis in 2018.* In the fiction category. The Grimme-Preis is an award for television programs in Germany and is considered the most prestigious media prize in Germany. In the first stage, viewers, broadcasters and producers can submit proposals. In the second stage, three nomination committees discuss in three sessions lasting several days which proposals will be nominated, i.e. submitted to the jury for a decision. Between 50 and 60 programs are selected for the three competition areas of fiction, entertainment and information and culture. In the third stage, the three juries decide on the final award in meetings lasting several days. A maximum of twelve Grimme-Preise will be awarded in all competition areas. The nomination committees and juries appointed by the Grimme Institut for this task are made up of television critics, journalists, media scientists and educational experts.
I don't exactly know what Claudia? said that prompted the discussion about the laws of thermodynamics, but I think it was in reference to the third law describing that entropy only ever increases. If you put all the O2 molecules in a room in one corner and wait a while the O2 will mingle with all the other particles in the air until eventually they are equally distributed, maximizing disorder. The relevance for Dark comes in in that entropy is used to explain the direction of time; entropy only ever increases with time and because it always increases, time can only go in one direction. The god particle decreasing entropy is meant to imply that it messes with/reverts time.
16:08 "Is that a different actor or the same? Cause it's so good." Yeah, when I first watched DARK, I thought Elder Ulrich was played by the same actor as Adult Ulrich, just with really good makeup. I was actually shocked to learn they were played by different actors. The casting for this show is great!
80's video games I remember: Pac-man, Galaxian, Donkey- Kong, Froggle, Pole-position, Mario Bros., Super-Mario, Joust, Tetris and the legend of Zelda to name a few.
actually looking at the english cc vs english subtitles and they are watching the english ones. i checked and the scene with gretchen regina says nonsense in english, and for god’s sake in english cc.
@@DonMariof English CC goes along with the English Dub. Only English is if you're watching in Original audio, as it'll translate French too, which doesn't happen in CC.
I'm watching Dark for the first time, and belatedly watching along with Blindwave. This episode kinda blew my mind. Did future Jonas try to meet his mom but failed to get there in time, before she shot herself? Is that why he was looking on the floor? When they return home, will they run into too-late future Jonas at her house? And when future Jonas took her to the 80s to see Mekkel, she cried like Mekkel was her son. And someone in season 1 made a comment about "his real mother," if I remember correctly. ...so... then... uh... if Hannah is Mekkel's real mom, then she's Jonas's mom and grandma... and she married her son... ermagherd. 0_0 Is that why Mikkel killed himself - did he find out? I felt bad for Ulrich, before remembering he tried to kill a child. He seems to think he deserved the punishment. I also love that future Jonas has a rope scar across his neck, and his near-execution by hanging is shown here. Also, Charlotte doesn't know who her parents are, and neither do I. WTF is Claudia up to? Ah! What is everyone other than young Jonas up to! AAAhhhh!! lol 27:59 Does Aaron mean heat/energy is always declining? Eric's statement that entropy is the "heat death of the universe" sounds right. Entropy is not always declining, it's always increasing. Entropy is a measure of the dispersal of energy, and since energy is always going from "high to low" or "hot to cold," it's always dispersing - always "spreading out." So the "spread," or entropy, is always increasing. If the black hole in the show followed this law, then I think it would be expanding/unstable. But since it hasn't expanded/fizzled so far, maybe Calvin is right that some external energy source is counteracting it's entropy and the plant's shutdown will cause the apocalypse. 28:02 Does he mean muscle atrophy?
18:00 Yes, that is a toast with pineapple but it is very much not a French Toast! That culinary abomination (semi-affectionate) is called a Toast Hawaii and it was a biiiiiig thing in the 80s in Germany. Don't ask me why, probably for similar reasons why the US have some buckwild weird 80s recipes too. Anyway, to make it you take a slice of toast, put a slice of cooked ham on it, then one slice of pineapple and then a slice of cheese. Then you bake it (or heat it in a pan, I'm not sure which one's the "original" way to make it) to melt the cheese. And there you go!
Everyone always hates on Hanna but she's like one of my favourite characters. I love characters that have some unknown mental health issue that isn't resolved.
You guys have had a couple really good discussions after the reactions where you actually say some insightful things about the characters and the narrative. But, now you're back to hyper-focusing on minutiae and corny jokes. I mean, it's ok and kinda entertaining, I guess. I'm hoping future episodes inspire more depth in your commentary as you all are obviously capable of such.
Exactly.. we had not internet, but HUNDREDS of video games. We had a Nintendo in 1987, but before that we had Atari, ColecoVision, Intellivision and all kind of games.
Well for one its all locked away, not exposed. And for another the machine is only affected by actual direct fuel input, ⚠️☣️☢️SPOILER COMING UP☢️☣️☣️ . .. ... SPOILER or something as intense as the full on apocalyptic blast and opening of a bunch of wormholes in close proximity.
@@pseudonymousbeing987 Ive watched the series twice now and i guess ill have to watch again. I seem to remember someone talking about how the material reacts that made me think the machine would be dangerous that close to the barrels.
23:00 I find Erik's quote about the second law of thermodynamics irritating. What should "the energy burns out" mean? The second law states that energy (which according to the first law cannot be created or destroyed) can only move one way; from hot to cold; from high concentrations of energy to low concentrations of energy. Tranmission of heat is, like chemical reactions and other a spontaneous process. The law says that all spontaneous occuring processes are irreversible. Entropy is the grade of these processes in an open(!) or closed system. It describes how much energy or matter(!) is already transformed into other forms of energy (or matter). In a closed system there is a maximal state of entropy when the energy is basically evenly spread across the system and therefore in equilibrium. Which is why I find it odd when people say that entropy was chaos when it describes a process where the end is an oderly "everything is the same". Then again the chaos thing stems apparently from an application to mechanical system. (*roll eyes* mechanics) Btu to really grasp entropy you have to understand that it is a statefunction that involves another statefunction of thermal dynamics and that why I simply cannot properly describe it... because I simply learned that and never understood it. And here comes real catch: all of this describes processes OVER TIME. So when Claudia says that inside the particle cloud the second law of thermal dynamics is off, we could immediately assume that this is because time inside the particle cloud isn't the constant flow we assume when applying the second law of thermodynamics. The main gripe I have with her statement is that her assumption that the particle cloud was (creating a) a wormhole immediately allows for energy passing to her point of observasion or away from it to the other side(s) of the wormhole. She cannot exclude that the particle cloud was using energy from the other side(s) of the wormhole to maintain it's mass. But yeah... the show apparently means to say that the particles itself are suspended from time.
Oh and for anyone wondering: Its slices of white bread toasted, with a bit of butter, cooked ham, pineapple slice (from a can, the sugery stuff), Kraft cheese slices (Cheddar works well), and a number of cocktail cherries on top to your liking; heat the oven to about 390°F (200°C) or fan oven to 356°F (180°C). Bake for ten minutes. Enjoy.
you can see adult Jonas in Season1 with the rope scar on his neck, i love how thought out this show is.... also you guys don't really seem entertainted by the show, it really shows, i think it's because of the language, they feel so detached from it.

actually looking at the english cc vs english subtitles and they are watching the english ones. i checked and the scene with gretchen regina says nonsense in english, and for god’s sake in english cc.
@@DonMariof English CC goes along with the English Dub.
Only English is if you're watching in Original audio, as it'll translate French too, which doesn't happen in CC.
Absolutely should have award categories for casting.
how is noone talking about 25:46 😂😂😂😂 the Psych reference killed me
7:17 „Eine Zeitmaschine“
- - „time machine is the same all languages!“
Each time the Sic Mundus picture is shown, and they say everyone is Noah, a little part of me says to check the character standing next to Noah.
I'm dying to see their reactions to what Hannah does later in this season...
It should be funny....
First season you guys guessed pretty well...second you're SO far off! Just wait and be patient...every thing is so different than you think.
It is muscle atrophy, not entropy, Aaron!
18:09 very eclectic toast song reference. I see you.
I solved the mystery. The crew uses magic trump ball to confirm or deny their theories.
I'm watching Dark for the first time, and belatedly watching along with Blindwave. This episode kinda blew my mind. Did future Jonas try to meet his mom but failed to get there in time, before she shot herself? Is that why he was looking on the floor? When they return home, will they run into too-late future Jonas at her house? And when future Jonas took her to the 80s to see Mekkel, she cried like Mekkel was her son. And someone in season 1 made a comment about "his real mother," if I remember correctly. ...so... then... uh... if Hannah is Mekkel's real mom, then she's Jonas's mom and grandma... and she married her son... ermagherd. 0_0 Is that why Mikkel killed himself - did he find out? I felt bad for Ulrich, before remembering he tried to kill a child. He seems to think he deserved the punishment. I also love that future Jonas has a rope scar across his neck, and his near-execution by hanging is shown here. Also, Charlotte doesn't know who her parents are, and neither do I. WTF is Claudia up to? Ah! What is everyone other than young Jonas up to! AAAhhhh!! lol 27:59 Does Aaron mean heat/energy is always declining? Eric's statement that entropy is the "heat death of the universe" sounds right. Entropy is not always declining, it's always increasing. Entropy is a measure of the dispersal of energy, and since energy is always going from "high to low" or "hot to cold," it's always dispersing - always "spreading out." So the "spread," or entropy, is always increasing. If the black hole in the show followed this law, then I think it would be expanding/unstable. But since it hasn't expanded/fizzled so far, maybe Calvin is right that some external energy source is counteracting it's entropy and the plant's shutdown will cause the apocalypse. 28:02 Does he mean muscle atrophy?
18:00 Yes, that is a toast with pineapple but it is very much not a French Toast! That culinary abomination (semi-affectionate) is called a Toast Hawaii and it was a biiiiiig thing in the 80s in Germany. Don't ask me why, probably for similar reasons why the US have some buckwild weird 80s recipes too. Anyway, to make it you take a slice of toast, put a slice of cooked ham on it, then one slice of pineapple and then a slice of cheese. Then you bake it (or heat it in a pan, I'm not sure which one's the "original" way to make it) to melt the cheese. And there you go!
hey, it's still big ;)
Toast Hawaii is chef's kiss
Toast Hawaii, better than it sounds. Bread, ketchup, ham, pineapple and cheese on top. Grilled in oven until the cheese is melted
I do without the ketchup and practically coat both sides of the bread with a thick layer of butter. 😋
Man Claudia and Noah are my favourite characters. Noah's arc is CRAZY
Everyone always hates on Hanna but she's like one of my favourite characters. I love characters that have some unknown mental health issue that isn't resolved.
Toast hawaii is pretty good. It's like pineapple on pizza but toast.
You guys have had a couple really good discussions after the reactions where you actually say some insightful things about the characters and the narrative. But, now you're back to hyper-focusing on minutiae and corny jokes. I mean, it's ok and kinda entertaining, I guess. I'm hoping future episodes inspire more depth in your commentary as you all are obviously capable of such.
Prostitution is not only the oldest profession, but legal here in Germany and even something you can officially apprentice to.
This man said there are no video games in the 80’s🤬…. Please insert him in time out!
Exactly.. we had not internet, but HUNDREDS of video games. We had a Nintendo in 1987, but before that we had Atari, ColecoVision, Intellivision and all kind of games.
Hear hear! The best gaming experineces in my whole life happened on the 80s while playing C64 and Amiga.
You guys are fun! But you don't pay as much attention to the screen as you should... So much is going to be missed.
the get most of it... and it is the Crew of Blindwave way!
What came first, the chicken or the egg? Lol
when they realize who adam actually is .....
At 13:54, how did she use the machine right next to barrels of the Cesium material without destroying everything?
Well for one its all locked away, not exposed. And for another the machine is only affected by actual direct fuel input, ⚠️☣️☢️SPOILER COMING UP☢️☣️☣️
.
..
...
SPOILER or something as intense as the full on apocalyptic blast and opening of a bunch of wormholes in close proximity.
@@pseudonymousbeing987 Ive watched the series twice now and i guess ill have to watch again. I seem to remember someone talking about how the material reacts that made me think the machine would be dangerous that close to the barrels.
23:00 I find Erik's quote about the second law of thermodynamics irritating. What should "the energy burns out" mean?
The second law states that energy (which according to the first law cannot be created or destroyed) can only move one way; from hot to cold; from high concentrations of energy to low concentrations of energy. Tranmission of heat is, like chemical reactions and other a spontaneous process. The law says that all spontaneous occuring processes are irreversible.
Entropy is the grade of these processes in an open(!) or closed system. It describes how much energy or matter(!) is already transformed into other forms of energy (or matter). In a closed system there is a maximal state of entropy when the energy is basically evenly spread across the system and therefore in equilibrium. Which is why I find it odd when people say that entropy was chaos when it describes a process where the end is an oderly "everything is the same". Then again the chaos thing stems apparently from an application to mechanical system. (*roll eyes* mechanics)
Btu to really grasp entropy you have to understand that it is a statefunction that involves another statefunction of thermal dynamics and that why I simply cannot properly describe it... because I simply learned that and never understood it.
And here comes real catch: all of this describes processes OVER TIME.
So when Claudia says that inside the particle cloud the second law of thermal dynamics is off, we could immediately assume that this is because time inside the particle cloud isn't the constant flow we assume when applying the second law of thermodynamics.
The main gripe I have with her statement is that her assumption that the particle cloud was (creating a) a wormhole immediately allows for energy passing to her point of observasion or away from it to the other side(s) of the wormhole. She cannot exclude that the particle cloud was using energy from the other side(s) of the wormhole to maintain it's mass. But yeah... the show apparently means to say that the particles itself are suspended from time.
Oh and for anyone wondering: Its slices of white bread toasted, with a bit of butter, cooked ham, pineapple slice (from a can, the sugery stuff), Kraft cheese slices (Cheddar works well), and a number of cocktail cherries on top to your liking; heat the oven to about 390°F (200°C) or fan oven to 356°F (180°C). Bake for ten minutes. Enjoy.
Last of us finale was epiccc
Dang I was trick by the title i thought you were watching the 2015 TV show called "Dark Matter" :(
Love the hate for Hannah.
Kerelian!
Have guys seen Dragon Ball Super: Superhero yet? and if not would you plan on doing a reaction for the channel and your website?
Atrophy and Entropy.
you can see adult Jonas in Season1 with the rope scar on his neck, i love how thought out this show is....
also you guys don't really seem entertainted by the show, it really shows, i think it's because of the language, they feel so detached from it.
um no. They are very much attached. (As seen in their full length reaction )
I'll fight you guys over Pluto. All four of you.
not a spoiler, but the magic *kinda* comes back. and since ure episodes ahead irl, u probably already watched what i mean by that.
there is no solar system (it is a violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics) the earth is stationary and level
I hope you are joking and not really that dumb?
excuse me?
What
suuure buddy
You talking about the show or in general? ...
so all the setup is basically over. From here on out the show gets nuts
