    How can you comment after one (or less) episodes
    People reviewing part way through the first episode are unrealistic. You have to watch all 4 episodes, which were immediately available, to understand the story and all the twists and turns. Not as good as the book, but they rarely are. Well worth watching, slow/burning but worth the wait.
