Waiting until episode 3 comes out to watch. Do all 3 in a row then I'll have the plot, characters, and the three most likely conclusions for the season. From there, if it's entertaining enough, then I'll finish it.
Daywolf lost hard with that. No hbo money I'm guessing.

^ Woke method. Its a really woke show too. Hard to take your eyes off Anthony Hopkins when he's on screen. I think you will like it, but it all depends on your tastes. If you're a fan of woke I think you'll be a fan of this.

There are a lot of characters, and the cast is obviously star-studded as you referenced, so unfortunately this isn't quite Hopkins-centric, but its been nothing but Keanu reeves >Woah.jpeg< when he's onscreen. Ed Harris has also been delivering a fair amount of woke (really there's no better word I can think of to describe the social commentary being doled out here by both of these guys). Great casting for Ed Harris he was born to play the role. Again I'll restate, sometimes you have to rewatch to get the full effect, and also to fully absorb the plot details and the technical details that are being doled out. The exposition is extremely quick and if you tune out a sentence or word, you tend to miss plot development details. But its still able to be comfortably watched as an idiot. One thing that sticks out, there are many many blanks in character development that aren't necessarily critical, but would be nice to know for development reasons. Its a True Detective Season 2-esque vibe where the character development had to be filled in by websites that have obviously been handed promo package by HBO to assist the viewers so they could fully appreciate the storyline and what you are seeing in the pilot episode. That is where it may fail to grab a less than core audience, casual viewers aren't going to hit the websites to get character details. And despite all the action and the blood and boobs angle, as mickmoranis inferred earlier with his depressive sci-fi comment, this is an absolutely character-driven series.

First episode was mediocre. They need to step it up if they are spending GoT money. Elsewise id rather them just put it towards the last 2 seasons and make them truly epic.
