Looks interesting. Have not read the book, but the trailer looks good.

Now available for streaming. I watched the first episode. It was pretty good. I'm going to continue watching, see what happens.

Show became available today. Just watched the first two episodes. Pretty good so far. Definitely has a Blade Runner feel to it. The cast/acting is solid. The special effects are superb. Definitely looking forward to watching more episodes.

There's a slight Bruce Wayne and Alfred element to it as well. Pretty cool so far

starting the first episode and it’s directed by Miguel Sapochnik. The director of GOT that did Hardhome, battle of the badtards etc.

Watching first episode now.

Seems like they're trying to cram a lot of set-up into the first half hour. But it is interesting enough to keep going. Doesn't seem like the best thing ever but agree it has sort of a Blade Runner vibe.

Changed my mind. Lots of stuff exploding and silly dialogue about a future investigation I don’t give two f’s about. Unless someone tells me it gets seriously better after episode one I’m going to give this one a pass.

Interesting. Thought the first episode was quite solid for being mostly necessary setup and intros.

Yeah, me too, I really should have more self control. There were some hokey bits and some things to nit pick here and there but I did enjoy the show.

I didn't realize going into this that the episodes are directed and written by so many different people. Not that there is a giant group working on each episode, almost each episode is done by a different group. It makes the show uneven. So sometimes it's schlocky and hokey. Sometimes the fight scenes are crap and the dialogue is poor. There is a fight in zero gravity that is just terrible, for instance. Max Headroom shows up at one point (it's him - I checked) and that goes about as you'd expect. The season finale has way too much moralizing in it and the SJW aspects are a bit too on the nose. I hope they can put together a second season with better overall quality and a tighter creative group but I don't know if that's possible.

Going to fire this up. Feel like I'm coming down with something and staying in tonight sounds like a fantastic idea.

Did two episodes and I'm just not feeling it. Found myself getting bored.

Anyone watched it that read the books? How does it compare? How much did they deviate? Where did they stop? Also, was Hendrix in it? I’m gonna be disappointed if it isn’t.
