I know I'm really late to this, but Christ what a fantastic show.
I am a big fan of the novel, and I felt like the 2009 film was a decent adaptation.
But this series is such a spiritual successor to the original story and never feels untrue to it. Similar to Fargo the series to the original film.

It’s an excellent, original series in an age where little seems to be original anymore and few risks are taken.
The people who think it’s woke missed every point about Alan Moore and the original graphic novel. Nevermind that the woke land of the 2019 series is a total hellscape and doesn’t reflect well on leftist politics. Some white people can be portrayed as racist shitheels and leftist idealism can be portrayed as doomed to fail; they’re not mutually exclusive representations.

I’m anti woke, and I was kind of worried with the first episode where i thought it may be headed. But it turned out great. Loved it

Lol it was so bad. I hate to be the “whah woke show” but the show was very anti-white. The KKK being the villains was so stupid and dr. Manhattan was a joke. Looked like a porno spoof.

That show could not have fricked up the Dr Manhattan story if they tried. They completely undermined everything Alan Moore wrote and developed in Jon.

That show was complete arse.

Terrible show. Probably would’ve been better if they would’ve made it something original instead of a lazy attempt to cash grab off the Watchmen name

It was really great I thought. Was a bit apprehensive at the beginning but liked how it developed and seemed like a true successor (to the comic to, not the movie ending). The mystery was engaging to watch unfold. May actually do a rewatch sometime.
The one major complaint I had was Dr. Manhattan seemed amateurish in acting and appearance compared to the movie where he looked awesome.
I’d be down for a season 2 or even an adaptation of Doomsday Clock one day.
