Started to watch & enjoy over the weekend. Very intriguing & original so far, but wary it may become somewhat frustrating. Already tired of the typical teen angst, but Theroux, Brenneman & Eccleston are magnetic characters. Concerned that Lindelof has his paws on it. Board's thoughts?

spoilers -




Scene where Gladys is murdered was one of the most brutal things I've viewed anywhere.

It could be the most interesting series on TV right now. I literally sometimes have no idea what will happen in an episode. There aren't many things currently on TV that I can say that about.

Easily the best show on TV right now.

Amazing.

International Assassin might be the most batshit insane episode of any show ever. In a good way.

Has been my favorite show on tv the last 2 years along with The Americans. Am looking forward to Season 3, but will be sad to see the Garveys go.

Love it! I believe the 3rd season will be the last. Hate to see it end, my wife and I have enjoyed the hell out of it. Another one we have enjoyed in a weird sort of no clue what is going on way is Preacher on AMC.

I need to give it another shot. I made it 6 or 7 episodes, and while it was really intriguing, it just never grabbed me and made me desperate to watch the next episode.

it's awesome and I wish there were a way to keep it interesting for more like 5 seasons. This upcoming season is unfortunately the last. Although I wouldn't want it to go down the Lost road either.

This show is essentially a soap opera for acid users .everything is overwrought and none of it makes any sense, which makes perfect sense. I Enjoy it.

It only gets better. Last season was the best season of TV since Breaking Bad, IMO.

Hated it the first time around. Watched the first 4 or 5 episodes and could not get past the ridiculous premise, the unbearable GRs, or the total misery surrounding pretty much everyone.

Gave it another go recently and loved it - from the second half of season 1 all the way through season 2.

Very much looking forward to season 3 and wish there were more than 8 episodes remaining.

It reminds me of Twin Peaks.
