Afterlife (I) (2005–2006)
8/10
U.K. Potential Goes Under the Radar
29 January 2008
I think what really lingers after watching "Afterlife"'s first episode is how realistic it is. That life cannot be summed up so simply that the dead seek either to help or be helped. In this we find sometimes the areas of gray go against what we believe is ethically in our own moral sense of responsibility.

But, that does not make them any less real. In fact it makes us look out from beyond a sense of comfort and safety, to seek a deeper understanding of what we have experienced, and discover what is real.

Episode one really hit me, like a ton of bricks and look forward to seeing episode two and the inner puzzles it gives me to unravel and decipher in this discovery of Spirit.

Afterlife really feels a sense of spirit, and though I like the American show Medium, this show seems to really have it's finger on the pulse of this issue in a way that gratifies a sense of exploration more so then the latter.
