Even though there is only 1 episode left, this deserves it's own thread.

Just watch this trailer and nothing else (as I did). You will be hooked by the end of the 1st episode.

It's been renewed for season 2 already.
Every episode is edge of your seat stuff.
The story surprised me in ways no other similar show has.
Acting by the main cast is amazing.


For those who have seen it, you can truly appreciate the epicness in the final moments of each episode:

Panning shot of the Neighbourhood
Sinatra's son's death and inspiration for Paradise
Doctor's message from the President to Xavier about Billy
Jane's revelation and actions
Message in the sky
Sinatra's bombshell
Whole damn episode really but at the end......Murderer's DNA and Sinatra bossing it!

Agree wholeheartedly, it’s all been good but episode 7 was next level.

The whole of Ep7 was phenomenal. I was on the edge of my seat, so much going on, quick decisions made, empathy from the President, relief and then heartbreak from Xavier, literal end of the world stuff. Yet at the end of the episode i said to wifey, "what did you think?" She says, "Sinatra's not a very nice person is she?"

Well, yeah, but that was your major takeaway from the episode?!

Really enjoyed this but s1 was just laying the foundations before stopping on major cliff hangers. Now we need to wait another couple of years for s2 :(
 
One thing I will say for this show - at least it has decent episode lengths of nearly an hour instead of the "40" minutes with about 25 minutes of actual content that so many shows are turning into these days.

A lot of very good stuff in the show but sometimes the budget CGI or under-developed technical side of things pulls me out of the immersion and at times the main characters brooding gets a bit tiresome.

Hopefully they get a bit more budget with season 2, though sometimes these shows are good because of being forced to work with what they have and having to be focussed and innovate.
 
just binged all 8 episodes tonight... well i say morning... goodjob im off work with a bad back :D

Brilliant series with some amazing twists.

cant wait for season 2
 
Started this as my new in the gym cardio watching. Went in blind and it was not the show I was expecting by the end of episode one :eek:

^As above. The finale was a bit rushed but amazing still. Entire season was absolutely stellar and it was nothing like I initially thought.
