This show is much better than I expected and much better than I initially gave it credit for. For someone looking for a super faithful recreation of the book Point Blanc with characters that match the descriptions of the characters in the book, you won't get it. What you get is a show that adapts the book and runs with it. The actors are well cast and the show flows pretty well, but it is a bit forced in the beginning, but in the middle and end of the show, it hits its stride and nails it.
As a fan of the original series, this TV rendition hits all the right buttons. It is one of the best adaptations out there hands down. I cannot wait for season 2.
