Standout episodes

01

Homecoming2016-12-16

The premiere establishes The OA's tone immediately - elliptical, earnest, committed to its own strange logic. A woman jumps off a bridge and walks back into the world with new eyes. The show trusts that image to carry the first hour.

7.8
08

Invisible Self2016-12-16

The Part I finale divides more than it resolves - the climactic sequence either lands as the most formally daring thing on streaming television that year or as an earnest absurdity, depending entirely on whether the show has earned your trust.
