I tried so hard to like this series. But shows are like people in that your first impression is usually the most accurate. My first impression to 1899 was that it seemed intriguing however paint drying on a wall moves at a faster pace. And that's how it stayed through the 8 episodes: the intrigue decreased while my boredom and disinterest increased all culminating in a climax of disappointment and confusion.
Give this to an editor not bound by a Netflix contract for 8 episodes, cut it down 3, maybe 4 episodes, and it would be much more enjoyable to watch.
Lastly, comparing 1899 to Dark was obviously nothing more than a clever and very effective marketing ploy. Well played Netflix, well played.
