[Moved to Piefed] Television

I think that it does improve after ep1, but we still abandoned it after around 4 eps. There was still nothing compelling or that added to the overall Duniverse.

It might be better as a binge rather than watching it week-to-week like I did. Overall I felt that not enough was done with the vast opportunities the IP provided, and it seemed a lot of money was spent on a less-than-compelling season of “prestige” tv.

But they got renewed for a second season, so I am probably an outlier.

Slightly better, but not significantly, and it dips in parts.

Honestly give it a miss, if s2 is much better then consider going back.

It was the opposite for me, the first episode or so grabbed me... but then it's just fine.

By the end I didn't hate it, I'll probably watch season 2, but if it gets cancelled I won't be surprised or that sad.

I fin that quality and intensity and tone dips up and down, but I found it engaging and well written and acted. There is a lot of world building without exposition, but some is needed which makes some parts a bit janky. However, when that exposition is done, it picks up, I find.

The acting is fantastic and the environments are really well done. However, the writing is poor to say the least, and the intrigues is paperthin. What made me really lose interest is the "drive it to your throat" ability that is used as a standard solution to most problems. The movies is of a different quality, I'll stick to them.
