I can't make it past episode 3 - overall lack of story - I liked a lot of things about it - but my queue is too large right now to bother with this. I def. like the way it was shot and the lighting, retro feel, etc.. but I'm not big on the actual story yet - I will re-visit it eventually.
Episode 3 is the one that gets you to continue wtf [Reply]

The hairstyles, the hideous makeup Brenda uses, etc. [Reply]

Thank you for not beating me up - I believe you and will totally watch the other 5. Look I really like A LOT about it. But I'm not grasping the story - at least as much as the others. It'll come I'd imagine - I'll fire it up again this week. I'm currently watching Pet Sematary. :-)

I'm also surprised that you would say "lack of story." In my opinion there are multiple good story threads running through the show so far and I just finished episode four. It has a Fringe/X-Files feel to it for me which is kind of fun in the early 80's setting. So many 80's references in there that you can't really list them all. And I did chuckle when MKULTRA popped up on that microfiche screen. [Reply]
Love this show so far. Just finished episode 6 last night, will finish the season tonight. I had to fight with my wife to get her to watch it, but now she's hooked. [Reply]

Once I got onto the middle episodes, I couldn't stop. I ended up staying up way later than I normally do because they kept ending episodes on cliffhangers. I watched ep. 1 on one night, then binged the rest of the series on the second. [Reply]

honestly sometimes my ADD gets in the way. Chillax though and scratch my evaluation, I'll post my final thoughts soon. [Reply]
