Well I'm a bit late but I finally got round to it. Just watched episode 4, the Reagan assassination attempt one..

fukking brilliant so far. Especially the first episode. Could possibly be the best pilot I've seen on any show, and I've watched all the big ones like The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Game Of Thrones and The Wire. And I'm hearing it gets even better with each season?

Phillip is basically a Soviet equivalent of a c00n isn't he?

It's a great show. One of the best in the second tier, so to speak. It's no Wire/Sopranos/Breaking Bad, but still damn good.

It's a remarkably good show. It and The Knick are probably my two favorite shows on right now.

Finished Season 1, currently up to the second episode of S2. I can tell the writing has changed just two episodes into the second season, but in a good way. Overall, a fantastic show, but I have no idea why it still isn't as popular as it should be:what:

Best episode? The one with the Amador shanking:wow:

Guess I'll be that guy. Watched all of season one, was a struggle. Couple episodes into S2 and I threw the towel in.

Yeah I tried but just couldn't get into it. I think the shore would have been better if they moved locations each season. I just had a hard time with them almost getting caught every week :francis:

One of my favorite shows. The ending was excellent as well.
