--- Quote from: dkersten on February 08, 2018, 12:04:34 pm ---I liked it. Story did take some turns that took away some of the appeal, got too complicated and stopped making good sense without a lot of working hard to connect the dots after each episode. I could see where they could have thrown in some small things here and there to make it flow better, make better sense of some of the actions and reactions. ... I also found myself going back to the start of an episode a few times to either figure out what was going on or pick up on some detail I missed while paying attention to something that didn't matter as much. I like a deep story, but all too often the depth of the story was lost if you weren't making those connections on the fly. --- End quote --- I agree on the flow and the way information was revealed, it could be confusing at times. I had to go back a couple times as well. --- Quote from: dkersten on February 08, 2018, 12:04:34 pm ---But overall, I was highly entertained, and that is the point. If I want to experience something introspective with tons of depth, I pick up a book. If I want to be entertained for an hour, I watch a show. --- End quote --- Same, overall I found it very entertaining! --- Quote from: dkersten on February 08, 2018, 12:04:34 pm ---As for the sex and violence, I thought it was just right. --- End quote --- I didn't find it gratuitous or out of place in this world at all either. Sleeves are just commodities in this world to be used as you will, and in the case of the rich they can afford the best sleeves so it only makes sense that they'd use them in F'd up ways. |
