Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

stuarth-931-601179 Liked the boardroom scene where Tess pitches the crown logo with the pic of braiding on the wall. Kudos to the creative folks - those images (crown, and braiding) are the same I used for my company Plectic which is about complexity! You may find a few coincidences in the series that appeal to you too:-)

carl-more-in-than-out-of-body Very very classy smart show, Falling Water (fall 2016 USA Network) really pulls me in with sympathetic diverse characters, exceptionally intelligent dialogue, beautiful cinematography, deep psychological plotting, and crackling cultural references from art to philosophy (i get the obscure ones too, including Dr. Caligari and upstate NY's burned over district). I'm so relieved that the show was *not* as horror shock oriented as the pilot, crafted to no doubt catch attention. And I'm delighted that the characters became increasingly relationship oriented where no one is good or bad, only conflicted. The most obvious ingredient missing that the writers needed to showcase is real dream interpreting - how can you have a series about dreams with minimal symbolism that no one talks about? Symbolic interpreting is where life gets really poignant and interesting and mind-bending, not the traditional reliance on billionaire conspiracies and magic kids that everyone's looking for. Those features don't make the show good or bad, only familiar.Humanity is desperately confused as it evolves, and endless superhero memes are barely touching the real deep angst that we're all going through. This show has a historic shot at hitting the mark of everyone's thrill and torment at transcendent self-discovery, thus becoming the touchstone that the producers hoped for. Kudos to the dream study commissioned in tandem with the debut, that was a bold and brilliant step into the future! (search online for "a new study finds why some of us may dream better than others") Thank you to everyone involved, because even if it never gets past one season Falling Water is a milestone to remember. Critics that dismiss this as just another "confuse them and they will come" Lost-knockoff are disappointingly missing the point, and I know I'm not the only one who knows the real score. Pleasant or not, dreams *mean* something important. Pleasant dreaming!

navtec I enjoyed this show from the beginning. I admit I seek out anything that critics are calling slow or complicated. I do enjoy simple, brainless TV like People of Earth where characters are the draw.The story line was simple throughout. The journey through it made it worthwhile. I enjoy seeing new and unique ideas (at least to me) no matter how bad the presentation. Here the production values are high and the sets well integrated. I thought the subdued acting/direction fit the dream state.The only thing I have to say about the finale was that I was left with a much different feeling about the boy than when he was first introduced. I hope there is a second season.

atlasmb "Dreamscape". "Inception". "Vanilla Sky". We have seen stories about dreams before. Lucid dreams. Dream travelling. The connectivity of dreamers. Now USA brings us "Falling Water", a sci-fi mystery that revolves around three characters.Tess (Lizzie Brochere) is haunted by a nightmare. In real life, she is an artist, a photographer, a discerner of trends in style and taste.Burton (David Ajala) is a compliance and regulations investigator for a high-powered Wall Street trading firm. He dreams of a woman.Taka (Will Yun Lee) is a NYPD cop. He cares for his unresponsive mother.A narrator asks "What if we're all dreaming together?" A man (Zak Orth) is conducting experiments about dream connectivity. Taka becomes involved in a confusing case of mass suicide. Interconnected clues start weaving the three stories together.The show has a serious tone. It's stylish. Atmospheric. The background music sometimes consists of eerie sounds, not exactly music. It's mesmerizing. The differences between dreams and reality are sometimes indiscernible. From the viewer's perspective, there is unpredictability--a hallmark of dreams. You want to see what happens next. Anything is possible. (I am reminded of "The Matrix").The cast feels like a collection of future superstars. The photography is beautiful. I want to know where this mystery leads.Update 11/30/16: I am raising my grade to "8". This story still has my attention, though I still don't know where it's going.
