- Dark Matter is the story of Jason Dessen, an intensely devoted family man with a lackluster career. One day he's abducted by a mysterious stranger, and every assumption he'd had about his life is yanked away. He finds himself in a disorienting world both similar and different from his "real" life.

Regarding why some of the “Good Jasons” at the end still exhibit negative behaviors (violence, aggression, etc.), my understanding is that-as psychologist Amanda suggested-the external material world is a projection of our deepest, often unconscious, inner true selves. This consciousness is a composite, not 100% pure bad or good, including both the parts we acknowledge and those we repress or deny, such as destructive desires or negative traits.
Even though this Jason values family and generally has good character, he is still human, which means he isn’t purely positive energy of "good"; his consciousness contains both positive and negative elements (maybe hidden/restraint by his morality or value system). Therefore, when his consciousness manifests in different “Good Jasons”, some may embody his better qualities, while others might materialize the more repressed, darker aspects of his personality. This is why, although the majority of the “Good Jasons” are good, some exhibit bad behavior.
In essence, the clones represent a materialization of Jason’s inner psyche. If his consciousness is (just e.g.)80% kind, 10% indifferent, and 10% envious, then out of 100 clones, roughly 80 would be kind, 10 indifferent, and 10 malevolent. This is just a metaphor to illustrate how inner traits can manifest differently when externalized.
Season two has been green light, so we will hopefully find out soon!
I think that the reason you don’t have multiple Jason 2’s running around in the same world like the numerous Jason 1’s lies heavily on intent. All those Jason’s intentionally and desperately looked for this particular world. Through trial and error, they all eventually found it. When Jason 2 entered the box, he was filled with regret. He wasn’t desperately looking for this world and the same could be said of any variant of himself. The rules seem to change but it really depends upon the intent of the character which is possibly what Blake wants us to see.
That's definitely a possibility. I do think it's a big omission to not mention other duplicates though
This is a good point - (I'm assuming) Jason 2 didn't know this world would be the one he wanted specifically so the other Jason 2s wouldn't all come here, but there should at least have been some Jason 2s that made it to this world.
I think no matter which Jason 1 she ends up with, it is her Jason because every one of them came after Jason 2 kidnapped him and sent him to the other world.
