This could have been an artistic masterpiece. All the elements are there. The cinematography, the music, the writing, the directing. Everything is top notch. But something is just not quite right. The pacing is slightly off. There are times where is seemed like the slow and steady progression stumbled. Usually it was when a character should have acted or spoken, but there were a few extra seconds before anything happened. Sometimes more than a few seconds. These little missteps were enough the break the spell of the otherwise brilliant unfolding of the story.

I also have to wonder at the mix of science levels. We have computers that look like they are from the early 90s and yet there is an obviously advanced robot in the woods. The TVs seem they are from the 80s. Why wouldn't these also.be from the 90s?

I can understand landlines if mobile phones would disturb the Loop (or the other way around).

I assume this was an attempt to make the show more temporally agnostic, but it was very distracting in its inconsistency.
