New series has very favorable Rotten Tomatoes score and only six episodes. I’ll give it a try; starts next Sunday.

It is all downhill from there. Nothing will live up to that. One of the best single seasons of anything I've ever watched.

Season 3 is worth it as Mahershala Ali is just so damn good in it, but Season two (which I still liked) was a miss.
