When The OA debuted on Netflix in 2016, it came with little fanfare and a lot of mystery. Created by Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, the show quickly set itself apart by being so strange, so ambitious, and so oddly moving. It ran for just two seasons before Netflix canceled it in 2019, but during that time, it built a cult fanbase and achieved a massive 85% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. If you missed it when it first aired, consider this your sign: now is the time to take a chance on The OA.
