Peace,
You'll be hooked after the first ep.
The writing is wonderful. It's one of the few programs that I've seen that actually gets certain difficult-to-render concepts right: the internet, mental illness, general resentment of corporate culture, etc.
The performances are strong, particularly that of the lead. He NAILS the character in such a decisive way that it's impossible to imagine anyone else portraying Elliot.
And the scope of the cinematography is what you'd expect from a film; I've never seen anything like it on television. It's panoramic and inclusive.
That's not to say that it's without it's faults. There are several characters that are so over-the-top that they seem cartoonish. But by and large, it's a hell of an achievement.
ya I'm a lil bit amped to watch it now
