Absolutely loved the first two episodes so far, the acting, directing, dialogue and cinematography are on point. Already recommending this to my friends; can't wait for more. Really hope it becomes a success.

Alright I don't know if my review was deleted as I can't find it, but as much as I'd like to enjoy the show, Sally Reed (the main female 'protagonist') ruins the experience. Actress is stunning, with an amazing performance, but I felt that the character she plays is a hollow 'sociopath', whether or not it's the shows' intention. No redeeming qualities, hard to sympathise with, superficial, only wants what she wants and blames other people for her negative outcomes. Does a great disservice to her friends, her moral compass is broken, uses people, gets jealous of other peoples success, manipulates others, guilt-trips them, the list goes on. You'll see it. I liked her a little in the beginning but by the end you just want to scream at Barry to GET OUT. Even if its the shows intention to make her worse than Barry/completely opposite to his character, I hope they give Barry another love interest which he has to choose between or something, and give her someone to fight against so that her character can either improve (like Barry) or get her to show her true colours. I study English Literature and one of the fundamentals in writing any main character is to show how they change based on their surroundings. Sally doesn't change, Barry does. That's why we love him and not her.

Loved it!!! HIGHLY recommended!!! It's almost 3AM but I simply HAD to finish season 1. This show messes with your mind and emotions, cleverly illustrating how 1-dimensional our thoughts and actions really are and we don't even realise it. It twists our perspective of situations throughout the movie, and we constantly change our judgement of the characters down to the last episode. Perfect acting too! My only criticism (and I'm sure most can agree) is that it's too short (as in it lacks more character and universe building, stopping abruptly). It isn't rushed, but I feel like season two (or even more?) would bring more closure and understanding of the universe. Perhaps introducing a new character who restarts the loop? Or something wrong happens in the universe? Maybe something from his past comes back? We just need more episodes with the same detail, quality and beauty. Somethings missing.
