It's a slow burn, but very good.

Well-acted by everyone involved ... and the cinematography is top-notch.

The creator of the show also did one of my other fave miniseries from last decade, The Night Of.

One of the highlights of the latter half of the season is the cat. Sitting there on ground level observing the suspicious goings-on ... the director deliberately cuts to the cat a number of times, and it'll make you chuckle because it's really good "cat acting", lol.
 
I love them furry motherfuckers. They don't give a shit about nobody but themselves...except when they don't. They will come to you when you're sick and shit. They also will alert you to danger.

But they know they're the superior species. Yes, they are our merciless overlords. Thousands of years folks been studying them and still can't figure them out.
