Let’s get into why fans cannot stop talking about Netflix’s Echoes.
8 What Is Netflix’s Echoes About?
Echoes is one of Netflix’s newest shows. The first season aired on the streaming service in mid-August of this year, and the show immediately jumped to number 1 on Netflix’s top 10 list. Essentially everyone was binge watching the show and blown away by the numerous twists and turns of the addictive plot.
The show stars Michelle Monaghan from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and she plays identical twins Gina and Leni. The twins have switched lives since they were children, and they share two husbands and a child. Their complicated yet well-choreographed lives begin to fall apart when one of the twins goes missing. This synopsis only begins to scratch the surface of the intense plot of Echoes.
7 Fans Call Echoes’s Michelle Monaghan A “Smoke Show”
While not directly related to the show, fans cannot stop talking about how stunning lead actress Michelle Monaghan is in the role and on her social media. Fans fell in love with Monaghan all over again after watching her incredible performance in Netflix’s Echoes, and now they are flooding her Instagram with positive comments.
Fans specifically called Monaghan a “smoke show” after she shared some stunning photos of herself on Instagram. She captioned the photo “on point,” and fans certainly agreed.
6 What’s The Difference Between The Twins In Echoes?
While fans love Netflix’s Echoes, they do have a few complaints. One big issue fans had when watching the show was the lack of distinction between twins Gina and Leni. While viewers understood this was partly intentional—Gina and Leni share each other’s lives, so they are quite similar—but this led to many viewers being confused.
Fans complained that Gina and Leni were so similar that they did not have any individual characteristics. This also caused viewers to be confused essentially the entire duration of the Netflix show, since they were never totally sure which twin they were watching.
5 Netflix’s Echoes Is Full Of Twists
One of the reasons fans have loved Netflix’s Echoes is the show’s shock factor. Netflix marketed the new show as a mystery-thriller, and fans certainly all agree that Netflix did their job within the genre. Even by the end of the first episode, viewers were hooked and desperately needed to know what happened next. This is no surprise considering Netflix’s success in the genre with shows like You.
Fans were blown away by the twist ending. The ending had fans scratching their heads: Is Gina dead? Which twin ends up with Charlie? The mysteries continue even after the show is over, and fans are impressed.
4 Fans Hate The Green Screen In Echoes
The largest complaint fans had with Netflix’s Echoes has to do with the production in the final episode of the season. Up until the final episode, there had not been any issues with production and everything looked very realistic. Then, suddenly, a horribly used green screen appeared on screen and fans were very thrown off.
Fans think the show runners could have found a much better way to film the waterfall scene in the final episode. Many think the bad green screen ruined the intensity of the moment. It certainly turned a series moment into a laughable event.
3 Fans Say Echoes Is A Success
All things considered with the twin confusion and the bad green screen, fans still think the show is a huge success. Viewers found the plot to be very engaging, and many chose to binge the entire season in one sitting because they could not wait to find out what happened next.
Fans have given Echoes a big stamp of approval. Everyone thought Michelle Monaghan gave an incredible performance, which is always tricky when playing multiple characters in the same production. Fans have dubbed Echoes a must-watch from the streaming service.
2 Critics Disagree With Fans’ Thoughts On Echoes
While viewers have loved watching Netflix’s newest hit show, critics do not have the same thoughts about the show Echoes. Critics found the show to be a let-down and did not love the twists and turns as much as audiences did.
One critic, Brian Tallerico, only gave the Netflix show 1.5 stars. He says that “the potential of Echoes starts to drain before the premiere is even over as it gets goofier and goofier in a way that’s not entertaining but frustrating.” Tallerico also took issue with how the show “over-explains everything” and the “shallow writing and choppy editing.”
1 Will Netflix’s Echoes Get A Season 2?
Unfortunately, a second season of Netflix’s Echoes has not been announced by the streaming service. To make matters worse, the show is currently listed as a limited series. Typically, this label means that the show will only have one season and fans will not be able to get the answers they hope for with more seasons.
However, this label of limited series can always change. Considering the show has been such a success with viewers, it would not be surprising if Netflix decided to ditch the label and begin working on a second season. It has happened before, so fans are crossing their fingers that this is not the last time they get to see these characters.
