The Drinker’s review is a pretty good place to get a sense of whether or not it’s your cup of tea.
I have at least one or two friends who had to kind of power through the first 4-6 episodes before abruptly becoming fanatics. It grabbed me on episode 4 and pretty much never let up. It’s got soft episodes like anything, but I don’t think there’s a soft season.
- darkerside 5y agoI was intrigued by the first few episodes, but found myself not caring towards the end of season 1. Is this just not for me?
- psyc 5y agoI actually made it through the first 4 or maybe 5 seasons, and was pretty bored and underwhelmed the whole time. I found all of the characters except Amos and Bobbie flat and (unintentionally) off-putting. Unless I'm missing something, the plot and premises are nothing special. I consider myself a big fan of many TV drama series, as well as sci-fi, I just put this one near the bottom of my list. I just don't get what's so interesting about it. For reference, I consider (2000s) Battlestar Galactica to be an astounding masterpiece and among the greatest TV series of any genre, along every dimension you could measure a show by. I guess there really is no accounting for taste. I've changed my mind before. I initially found Breaking Bad unwatchable, but eventually came around to thinking it's very good.
