I did not want to watch this show by its premise or the trailers, until someone I trusted recommended it. Wow am I glad I gave this a shot!
Episode one is genuinely a perfect pilot episode from start to beginning. I'm fact, you can just watch it as a short story and it's fantastic like a (good) Black Mirror episode. If you don't immediately love the show after episode one, then you probably won't enjoy the rest of the show.
My wife and I binged this together over 2 days and had our own theories as to what was going on in the story, which to me illustrates an intriguing mystery when you can have several theories with your own reasoning behind them.
The main character also wants to solve the mystery right away, but they keep running into hurtles which forces them to adapt and fix the problem at hand before moving on. It's a great way to introduce characters and other aspects of the show.
It's puzzling to see others reviews about how the show is slow. If you think this is slow then don't watch GoT, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Soppranos, or The Wire, THOSE are slow!
Give it a watch, you won't regret it. The average score is high on every platform for a reason!
