I was honestly surprised at how much i enjoyed this pilot! Despite the episode lasting almost an hour, it never felt too long!

This episode does a great job of setting up our main character, by showing us different perspectives of him, combining what he says.. and what we see!

The narrative way of explaining what is going on and who he is, was a nice breath of fresh air to me! I loved it cause it already makes this show stand out from other shows!

So many layers of depth, metaphors and comparisons that really gives the show a unique personality and keeps you invested as you have to pay attention to get it all! Loved how the ducks tied itself to what Tony was going through!

Tony is such an interesting character that we somehow quickly resonates with as he, despite what he does for a living, still cares about those closest to him like the rest of us!

A very promising show!
