This is a divisive series from Markiplier among watchers, though it is one I have personally enjoyed. While I felt the series started out slow in Episodes 1 and 2, it ramped up as you're kept on the edge of your seat as the protagonists creep closer and closer to certain doom: sleep, and they're racing against the clock and their own bodies to figure out what's going on and how to save themselves.
Initially, as an avid watcher of Markiplier's YouTube channel and his choose-your-own-adventure mini-series, it was hard for me to see past his normal personality and take him seriously. However, the show starts off where everyone is faced with alarming confusion and doesn't let up in terms of drama and tension, and that allowed me to get past the image I had of Markiplier in my mind for years.
I have to send a kudos to Markiplier, the other actors, and others involved in the creation of this series. I found it to be professionally made and enjoyable, and making and publishing a TV show on a major streaming platform is no small feat.
While the show wraps up nicely, it leaves the door open for a season 2, and I'm all for it.
4/5
