I was initially “wow-ed” by “Messiah”, and binged all 10 episodes in one day. What I am left with at the conclusion, is nothing but pure speculation, however. I would definitely watch a season 2, due in part to the strong acting on the behalf of Mehdi Dehbi (“Al-Masih “) more than anything else. The writers did seem aimless after episode 4, which bothered me. An excessive use of various branches of “what ifs” and rash semi-formed conclusions on the behalf of the focal protagonist (Michelle Monaghan aka “Eva Geller”), who was also as ambiguous in her own background as Al-Masih, made this viewer also feel more than a bit unfocused as to the definitive meaning of the series. “Messiah” is definitely an easy and interesting, and thoroughly addictive watch, regardless of the issues with the story itself (which is probably intentional on the behalf on Netflix).
