I found the first episode to be completely enthralling from beginning to end. I often stop paying attention to what I'm watching, I work from home so I end up getting distracted and working on my computer and then I have to re-watch the show later. With this show, I stopped everything I was doing and was glued to the screen. I particularly loved Merit Weaver in this. I'm very surprised it doesn't have a higher rating. I've seen several reviews saying they didn't approve of the morals of Merit's character and therefore, didn't like the episode / show. Since when do we not watch shows based on the morality of the characters?? The majority of great films throughout history should have been flops by that logic. I was also disturbed to see reviews with negative comments about Merit's appearance. It seems that some men have a difficult time dealing with a female lead character that doesn't align with their idea of how a woman should act or that isn't the height of their particular idea of female attractiveness. All actresses are not here to fulfill your sexual fantasies, some of them are actually just good at acting and happen to be normal looking people, deal with it. Anyway, ignore the haters and watch the show! It's super well done!
