I remember seeing the first episode of the series in 2016, when I was just 16 years old. I don't remember much but I remember being unimpressed so I changed my gears to more "popularly known and acclaimed" shows. I backed out of this show just because I didn't understand the tone of the first episode or I was too much of a "cinema novice" to understand. But, now in 2021, after 5 years, I decided to pick this up after seeing about 72 shows. First of all, I absolutely adored watching Justin Theroux in every episode. That man is very handsome and handles himself very well.
Talking about Theroux, it brings me to the cast of the show which is absolutely brilliant. The acting of every cast member is immaculate. You feel for them, you feel with them and sometimes you feel something against them. Mind you, only Season 1 is based on the book, the other two seasons are just creations of the writer only, of how he imagined the sequels of the book. Even Season 1 is not entirely based on the book. But, it's better.
Not relying too much on Sci-Fi show, it still seems better than most. For me, this show was romantic and poetic. A great show to binge watch. I was just mesmerized by Theroux. Oh, I decided to watch this show after seeing him in Mulholland Dr last year and then I read about the show and found it exciting and unique. Well, it exceeded my expectations, absolutely.
Easily in my Top 15 list. My rating is 8.6/10 because Season 1 8.5/10 Season 2 8.3/10 Season 3 9/10
Cheers.
