Fell asleep during episode 3 of Dark and woke up completely lost but somehow more hooked than before

I tried watching that German sci-fi show everyone raves about, nodded off for 20 minutes, and when I came to, the timeline had jumped and I had no clue who was who, but the mystery was so deep I just kept binging anyway - has anyone else had a show click for them even when you missed half the plot?

oh man, same thing happened to me with the first season of Mr. Robot - passed out for half an episode and woke up in the middle of some weird family drama, but the vibe was so strong I just went with it and ended up loving the whole series. your mileage may vary but honestly being a little lost sometimes makes the payoff way better when things start clicking.

... and honestly that's the best way to watch Dark the first time... being confused just makes the reveals hit harder. I had to rewind episode 2 like three times but still couldn't tell the characters apart... by season 2 I accepted I'd never fully get it and just enjoyed the ride.
