See Season 1 - Threesixtyp -
The twins, Kofun and Haniwa (Archie Madekwe and Nesta Cooper), represent that dangerous curiosity. Their discovery of sight is not a heroic montage. It is terrifying. They see faces for the first time—and recoil. They see the dirt on their mother’s skin. They see the violence of the world rendered in high definition. Season 1 never falls into the trap of romanticizing vision. It shows sight as a disruptive, lonely, and morally ambiguous weapon. Jason Momoa is often typecast as the muscle-bound brute. In See Season 1, he deconstructs that. Baba Voss is a warlord who has laid down his sword. He is a stepfather, not a biological father. He is a man terrified not of enemies, but of losing his family to a world he cannot understand. When he finally sees his children’s faces in a mirror in the penultimate episode—the first time he has seen anything—Momoa plays it not with joy, but with utter devastation. He realizes that love existed perfectly well without sight. Vision only adds the pain of separation. The Flaws in the Dark To be balanced, Season 1 stumbles. The middle episodes (Episodes 4-5) suffer from “world-building fatigue,” where exposition dumps about the “Age of Enlightenment” feel like homework.

See suggests that true community might require blindness—the willingness to touch, to listen, to trust without the corrupting proof of your own eyes. See Season 1 - threesixtyp
Furthermore, the show’s hyper-violence can feel gratuitous. Throats are slit in every episode. The argument that “violence is how the blind navigate threat” only goes so far; sometimes, it feels like shock for shock’s sake. Looking back from 2026, See Season 1 stands as a monument to a brief era when streamers took insane risks. It is not a show about disability. It is a show about perception . In our current world of algorithmic echo chambers and digital filters, we are drowning in images, yet we understand less than ever. The twins, Kofun and Haniwa (Archie Madekwe and
The Alkenny tribe (led by the ferocious Baba Voss, played by a grunting, grieving, utterly committed Jason Momoa) doesn’t stumble through the dark. They have built a society. They read via knotted ropes. They navigate via echolocation and the vibration of spider silk. They fight with a terrifying choreography that replaces visual parries with auditory feints. They see faces for the first time—and recoil
