Was bored to death during the first episode, just bored during the second, will give it one more. The actors, acting, sets, etc. are amazing but the pacing and plotting are slow and generally not great. Really want to like it though.

Third is the first one I’ve really enjoyed. I thought the first and second were pretty meh (the war flashbacks in episode 2 are like the most generic loving thing ever), but 3 develops some of the characters in interesting ways.

“The god of peace will crush you!” is certainly a thing to say

Eight million for the premiere and best series premiere numbers in about two years means this show is quite a bit more popular than I expected.

Where’d you get that number from?

My main fear, if you could call it that, is that they might still swerve into some bullshit AU territory and kill off Della or something. Like "LOL this ain't your grampa's Perry Mason, it's a whole new ballgame, no plot armor here."

The new Star Trek broke me.

I agree this would be super disappointing but I don’t think there’s really any chance of it happening.

I hope her and Hazel are a bigger part of season 2, Hazel is always great. “The word means relevant.”

The other canon character is Della’s beard who is the DA in the OG show. They set that up in the latest episode when they talk about him planning to run.
