I got bored around halfway through season 1 and stopped watching it. Picked up Season 2 on Netflix and binged the rest after that. It ramps from standard 'randos form unlikely crime fighting team[0]' with a dystopian twist through 'vast surveillance state conspiracy' to 'post AI FOOM WTF?' quickly and at times quite profoundly.
I got much the same feeling from later eps as I did watching Ex Machina : "Yes, this is fiction and highly speculative fiction at that but holy fuck, for once someone has actually bothered to do some research on the technology and the philosophical implications"
So if like me you dropped this, be sure to pick it back up, you won't be disappointed.
[0] And thus we can be sure that real life is not like TV because if it were nearly everyone in the US would be part of an unlikely and seemingly mismatched but somehow highly successful crime (including monsters) fighting team.
