Station Eleven is a harrowing yet beautiful tale and so far the series is telling the story really well. 3 episodes out at time of this review.
It's not perfect and some line delivery is eh, but you can tell right away how high quality this show is and the scope of it all. Very pleasantly surprised with how good this screen adaptation is so far.
It's not your standard post apocalyptic affair, no zombies. Not filled with guns and action. It's a story about art and beauty being kept alive even when the world has seemingly ended, with the juxtaposition of those that remember the previous world and those that were born into this new one.
The negative reviews are critique that it's 'artsy.' It's not artsy, it's just about arts through an unfamiliar lens. Don't be discouraged by the scathing reviews that are mad this isn't yet another boring action set piece.
Also, the first episode is realistic to the point that it may be disturbing to some given todays circumstances.
Give it a shot, have an open mind, you won't be disappointed.
