The acting is so so, and it seems low budget in places. I dunno about this show brehs. 6 episodes in and I'm getting kinda tired of it. I'll finish it up later tonight and drop a proper review, but right now, it's like a 6.5/10

Episodes 5 and 6 really dropped off compared to episodes 1-4

Rufus Sewell does a good job. He steals every scene.

It's good to see DJ Qualls in this too. I always liked that goofy looking motherfukker.

I just finished this trash. It's much ado about nothing. Nothing is explained in the end. I wasted 10 hours of my life. It had interesting moments, but this is a 5/10 show.

Maybe if I read the book, I'd understand more, but literally nothing is explained in the ending. It's full of like 5 filler episodes too. :camby:

I can't recommend this.

i bailed and jumped to Jessica Jones. I'll come back to this, but it is not "bingeworthy tv"

Amazon is basically Showtime to Netflix's HBO. they still haven't gotten their big show to rival yet
embarassed to say I spent my entire Saturday watching Jessica Jones. all friggin day. i have the finale left and i'm saving it for later.

Glad I waited before starting this

I haven't heard anything good from the people who saw it so I think I might have to pass :patrice:

Pass breh. I know good television, and I know you do too. I have a feeling you might be disappointed if you watch it. It's not up to our standards for good tv

:ld: NOT SURE IF THE NATURE BOY SHOULD WATCH OR NOT BREHS


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ehhh...if you read the book, you might like it, or if you're interested in what America might have looked like if the Nazis and Japanese won WW2, you might like it. I found the first 4 episodes pretty interesting, but 5-10 were a disappointment, and the ending never explained anything. It's also poorly acted in places and low budget. If you got nothing else to watch, maybe give it a try, but I can't personally recommend it.

I was thinking of checking this out but I'm skeptical now. Might have to hold off and catch up on more important shows.
