First episode was mediocre. They need to step it up if they are spending GoT money. Elsewise id rather them just put it towards the last 2 seasons and make them truly epic.

Anything that Azzar is hard selling like this I am immediately skeptical of, however my roommate says this show is good. I have not sat down and watched a full episode yet myself. I have them recording on the DVR though. But I also still have 9 episodes of Fear of the Walking Dead that I need to catch up on while maintaining Gotham, The Strain, Raw/SmackDown, American Horror Story, The Exorcist, Southpark, and my many other shows that are starting soon.

Second episode was woke. Hopkins dunked on that dude so hard and he wasn't even trying, it was just tough love.

Pretty much any time he's on screen someone can get dunked on by a wokequake (similar to an intellectual earthquake)

Also the new characters they introduced are great. Love the juxtapose of the two friends, one thrill seeker, one is obviously just a nerd. Many people here can relate to that storyline, as we've been on at least one side of that arrangement before. It was thrilling to watch him go through the tests and temptations of the wild west.

Everyone is either the less cool, or less inclined pleasure seeker out of the 2 friends at some point in their lives. No 2 friends are ever completely on the same page.

I liked that dichotomy.

I watched first episode before I read post. Azz Gj with well layed out posts...

I kept thinking of it as a "Programmer's Nightmare" show as i was watching it... like it was a sequel to the movie about the AI experiment and the dude gets out and is actor Tony in the future... (well that reads like crap but immuh leave it)

sidenote - Spyder spotted at WSOP...

Thrilling episode. Show is fucking delivering on the adventure/thrills, was definitely edge-of-seat tonight. The whole robot thing doesn't matter, and that indicates some amazing producers, writers, and direction at work.

I'm impressed. This concept had the potential to be complete shit in the wrong hands.

And Anthony Hopkins character is in full bloom, development wise, after those scenes in Ep. 3. Just when we thought he could take a backseat. He's all of a sudden "hands-on" with what amounts to direct orders being given to the "doctor". Interesting angle being setup between creator, management, and the doctor at this point.

Luke Hemsworth is fleshed out at this point as the quintessential muscle.

I'd like to see more development on the manager chick at some point, hopefully the affair that the doctor is having with the manager isn't the only angle she's in. With writing this good so far, I doubt she's going to waste.
