The other day I finished watching the series Daybreak on Netflix. The series is only 13 episodes, so I guess it was cancelled, but at least the story was wrapped up somewhat neatly.  The idea behind the story is police-drama meets groundhog day: a day keeps repeating and repeating until something happens to stop it from repeating.

In this story the main character is framed for murdering a District Attorney. There is some major conspiracy going on in the background and each day he wakes up and it's the same day over and over again, so he gets do-overs.  Just like video games he goes on trial and error approaches, sometimes head-strong, sometimes just not giving a damn, but he puts it all together in the end (unlike a video game, any bodily injuries do stick with him at each daily reset).

The story was compelling enough to see who killed the District attorney (and why) and if the main character would come out of it clean. The series didn't end with a cliffhanger, but it did leave a hooks for a potential continuation or a possible sequel.  I don't know. It was an interesting concept, but in the end the groundhog day effect kind of wore off...
