There are many shows I have watched and few have been as bingble as this (GOT excluded). Great concept and extremely well executed. I’ve seen some other comments complaining of Hollywood cliches, not believable characters, and whatnot - I believe they are from people who aspire to be movie critics looking for something to complain about the entire time while likely engulfed in the show. I have not read the book so I can not compare to that, but the long and the short is, if you like sci-fi tv, a great story and incredible cast then you should at LEAST give this show two epidodes to judge for yourself. I hope you like it as much as I did! Tony Collette is, as per usual, a rock star in this show.
Okay, and on a personal note, I would freaking LOVE to see this happen in real life - I think the world could be a much better place if women had all the power!
