I am so happy.

GoT is on its last 2 seasons and I was getting depressed. Now HBO has another instant classic. The Wire, The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, etc. Does HBO ever put out anything other than perfection?

Ed Harris and Anthony Hopkins alone make this show epic.

Ep 2 was better than 1. Ep 2 still had the tone of a pilot, I feel like the key concepts are still being introduced.

I think the final Anthony Hopkins speech was basically a metaphor for the process of making movies/shows. Audiences don't come back for the generic titillation, we look for the nuances. And hopefully, that's what this show intends to focus on.

I've already found myself, while watching, pondering "What would I do I if was given free reign like them?" and then comparing the consequences of my choices to what the characters are doing. If they continue with these scenarios each episode, it bodes well for the show.

But the "main plotline" seems to be the Ed Harris/corporate bigger picture mystery. It seems decent for now, but who knows if it will be any good. Too early to tell.

Really? I assumed it would be a mini series considering it is basically just expanding a 2 hour movie. 5 seasons seems excessive.

People just don't get sick of shows.
In my opinion even Stranger Things would have been better if it was a 90-120 min. movie.

Loving so far. Just watched episodes one + two. Had planned to save up some episodes but couldn't hold out any longer.

That paint it black <3

I think the main plot is the AI glitches and whatnot. At least that is what the movie was mostly about.
