I try, but without trying, and I cannot find the virtues of this series. There are interesting elements, such as the use of rotoscoping animation technique that reflects that blurred border between reality and fiction, between real performance and animated performance.

But this technical quality is built on an irregular story that, as in other recent series such as "Devs" (Hulu, 2020-), lengthens its plot using the protagonist's confusion. Of the 8 episodes, it takes 5 for the main character to understand his mission, a narrative trap that generates useless episodes.

"Undone" is a politically correct series that it wants to be politically correct, which translates into "non-white" characters, but who basically behave like "white people". This is particularly prominent in Alma, whose intention to modify the past has a certain nihilistic character, an intention that is to change what needs to be changed to suit her supposedly perfect vision of life.

The narrative game that the writers propose is quite crude, with amateur resources (the psychiatric background, the names of the protagonists ...) and with a resolution in the last two chapters that is tricky and inconsistent (the opened ending). But the packaging manages to hide the ineffectiveness of an useless story.
