No Spoilers Please

Just wondering anyone's thoughts on the first and second episode and if it looks good enough one and to keep watching?
I'm about done with the first one and its fairly blah IMO. I really like Lithgow and Bridges and willing to tough it out but was really hoping to enjoy a new series.

Blah?? You kidding me? I’m also about 30 minutes in and he already shot a dude in the neck after his dogs attack him during an at night break in. And there is a ton of mystery… don’t have a clue what’s going on, well kinda.

But how is it blah??

Glad you feel it will get better. I'll watch the second one and see if it grabs me more.

Yep, and now a truck just came out of nowhere hit another truck and killed a dude.

You sure you are watching the right show?

Interesting enough so far. Anyone else get a little annoyed with all his moans and groans?

I thought it was blah too. I love Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow but fight scenes and all that aren't enough to keep me from being bored. And ever since Crazy Heart it seems like Jeff Bridges' throat is trying to eat him or something

I thought it was a little slow at times, and I wasn't sure it would keep me interested. I haven't watched ep 2 yet, but I'll give it a shot.

Yeah I’ll watch the second and 3rd but it’s on a short leash. Watching a 70 year old physically beat up younger guys isn’t reality plus was fairly drawn out and semi boring. IMO
He also does have something weird going on with his mouth and throat as you mentioned.

Man, I guess I should’ve seen that twist coming in the 3rd episode.

Pretty solid show so far.

My wife called that after watching the first 2 episodes and after I thought about it, it made a lot of sense.

The cliffhanger at the end of III was kinda bleh considering the previews for the series already spoiled it.

I watched about 40 minutes 9f the pilot. I found it quite dull.

But I just found this show called Pagan Peak and it's German or Austrian and it's incredible. It's on Amazon till the 30th.
