Anyone watch this? I recently watched the first two episodes on Netflix. I like it but am wondering if it's worth getting invested in.

I didn't think it was very good. The acting is especially bad.

I liked it alot. Acting is a little suspect, but the fighting scenes are amazing. Reminds me a bit of The Matrix fight sequences.

I really like the fight scenes. It's a little over the top but fun anyway. I plan on sticking with it for now. I like some of the actors I've seen so far, the ones I recognize from other stuff. This main guy Sunny(Daniel Wu) is a great martial arts guy.

It's an action show with great visuals, that's about it. If you're fine with those shallow expectations, it's really good at what it does.

It's like TV show version of the video game Street Fighter.

Surprised it got a second season.

If you love action you will love it. Great visuals. Great fight scenes. Love the Baron character.

The first season was only six episodes but that is what AMC did with TWD.

It's only 6 episodes in the first season. If you don't like it after about 10 minutes, you may not like the show.

Rewatching before tomorrow's season premiere. Damn, the widow is sexy in all that leather and boots.

The acting is horrendous but the story is compelling enough to have me watching.

Forgot that Cung Le made an appearance in the finale. MMA fans will know or should know who that is.

First season is on Netflix right? 2nd season is what AMC?

This is correct. Season 2 premiere is tonight at 9 pm. 10 episodes in new season.

The acting is bad. The fight choreography is incredible and it's a very refreshing change visually from the dark, grey, gritty shows to bright colorful scenes.

It might not be the best show on TV but it is personally one of my favorites to watch.
