In addition to her role as creator and executive producer of this mind-bending series, Brit Marling also plays the role of Prairie Johnson, a young woman who returns home after a 7-year disappearance. Her sudden return is not the only miraculous occurrence: everyone is shocked to learn that Prairie is no longer blind. While the FBI and her parents are anxious to discuss Prairie's disappearance, she won't talk about what happened during the time that she was missing. Zal Batmanglij, the co-creator and an executive producer of the series, is the director of every episode.

The OA is kind of genius, while simultaneously being incredibly silly. And you know what? I love it! I love its goofy, loopy vibe. Go to Full Review
Esther Zuckerman Thrillist 04/18/2019
The sequence with Old Night is what The OA does best. At first the scene is stunning, almost laughable, in its sheer oddity, but then the mood morphs, as it pulsates with existential terror and a sort of unnerving sexuality. Go to Full Review
Rachel Syme The New Republic 03/29/2019
I wish more television was this unafraid to leave its audience fumbling for understanding. Go to Full Review
Jennifer Bisset CNET 04/06/2023
It glues itself together with realistic, loyal characters bonded by their harrowing shared ordeals. There's even a believable love story, a flicker of warmth amid the creepy science, cryptic puzzles and trippy imagery. Go to Full Review

[The OA] manages to be stranger, more puzzling and even more addictively demented than the first season. Go to Full Review

See more Fay B Aug 25 We want season 3 !!!!! To the creators of the OA - if by any chance you read this! If Netflix continue acting like idiots then won’t you please release the rest of the series through published books instead! I don’t care the method I just need to know what happens and I need more of this show it’s just too amazing. In a world full of meaningless, blind, stupidity this is one show that actually goes deep but in the most stunning, most intriguing and clever ways. I love it, please finish the seasons however you can!! I want more!! See more Oli L Aug 23 this is the type of show i cant binge watch because i want to take each episode in 1 at a time and knowing it cant last forever, i want to savor it while i can... my season 1 review is appropriate for this season as well... "really good... better than i had expected. hoping for a season 3 or conclusion of some sort. after this and "murder at the end of the world", brit marling and zal batmanglij have a new fan in me" See more Sebastian @Undercapsule Aug 5 The OA is unlike anything else; bold, emotional, and endlessly creative. Every episode pulls you deeper into its mystery, and Brit Marling delivers a performance you’ll never forget. We need more shows like this — bring on Season 3 already and lastly show it more support! See more Alberto B @Magellan9 Jun 7 I never thought I could fall in love with such an authentically spiritual series. Normally, I don’t enjoy overly rhetorical or cliché productions like, for example, the Wachowskis’ Sense8, but this is something truly sensational. I loved everything about this series, starting with the story — obviously the most important element in any narrative, whether cinematic or otherwise. The characters are also masterfully crafted; they act in unpredictable yet always sensible ways, creating endless plot twists and even moving the audience emotionally. Brit Marling must have a brilliant mind in addition to being a beautiful woman... This show is an underrated masterpiece. See more Read all reviews
