Hailed as one of the best sci-fi novels of the decade, Dark Matter is a story about the road not taken. The series follows Jason Dessen, a physicist, professor, and family man who – one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago – is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the multiverse of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of mind-bending realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.

All of the non-Dessen family stuff was really good.
Season one was pretty good, It's very contrived and racially woke like everything else now.
Excellent episode, although Jason's unhinged behaviour following from his earlier reasonable behaviour at the meal was a little too OTT.
Should have seen the spoiler given the box's behaviour in the perfect world where it had been moved but then appeared again back in it's initial spot.
I thought that lore point was pretty obvious even from last season.
