What Is ‘The OA’ on Netflix All About? Here’s Everything You Need to Know About the Show and It’s Latest Updates

One of the most bonkers and brilliant shows on Netflix is The OA. The OA is a
mystery sci-fi drama television series by Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, which
is their third project together. The show debuted on the streaming giant on
December 16, 2016, and became immensely popular among viewers. The show has two
seasons with eight episodes each, which explores a woman Prairie Johnson who
appeared again after missing for seven years. Prairie has been blind since
birth, but after returning she can see now and calls herself the OA.

The OA has received a fair amount of positive reviews from critics and
audiences. The show has scored 84% in Part I and 92% in Part II on Rotten
Tomatoes. As Thrillist explains about the show
[https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/the-oa-season-2-old-night-octopus-explained],
“The sequence with Old Night is what The OA does best. At first, the scene is
stunning, almost laughable, in its sheer oddity, but then the mood morphs, as it
pulsates with existential terror and a sort of unnerving sexuality.”

WHAT THE OA ON NETFLIX IS ABOUT?

Season 1 introduces a woman named Prairie Johnson, a blind young girl, who was
kidnapped seven years ago. After seven years, she has come back to her hometown
with her eyes restored. While bonding with her parents in the hometown, she
meets a bunch of young boys. She explains to them that her experience is real
while traveling into dimensions and different time zones and resulting in
life-ending experiences.



In conversation with the Associated
[https://www.scmp.com/culture/film-tv/article/2055695/new-netflix-sci-fi-thriller-oa-based-real-life-encounter-says-star]
Press, Brit Marling, who is co-creator of the show, claims that she had met
someone like Prairie in real life. She explains, “She just seemed to be
operating at a different frequency. When she told me she had a near-death
experience — and described leaving her body and what she felt inside herself on
the return — you understand why she felt like a person who was both apart from
the world, but also more deeply in it.”  

Now, let’s dig a little more details about season 3 of The OA.


WILL THERE BE A SEASON 3 OF THE OA?

Unfortunately, just after two amazing seasons, Netflix has canceled the third
season by leaving the viewers in a cliff-hanging position. But, the actual plan
as per the creators was that the show
[https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/oa-movie-netflix-brit-marling-1203317355/]
will release into five seasons. But the creators moved backward, as they even
don’t want to conclude the series in a film as well.

So, The OA is dead. We can only hope that the creators change their mind in the
future.
