If memory serves-

"Don't do anything just because you're hungry. Not even eat."

Do people really have trouble following a show with 4 protagonists? I've seen that in lots of comments.

At first it was just difficult to find someone to narrow in on. It dragged the story in many different directions to the point of it becoming difficult to get emotionally invested in it. I think they did a great job bringing it all together though and im super interested in this season.

It's pretty simple compared to Game of Thrones.

I liked it, it was a little jumbled but I'm sure that won't last once the story progresses.

Well, I'm in. Tough to judge a show on the first episode, but there's certainly enough meat on the bone to stick around and see if it's worth it.

The song and intro...yes, liked it a lot. Kinda psychedelic, like the whole show.

The staring contests between the characters is a bit too strong. e.g. Farrell vs. Vince.

That hungry/eat line was lame.

Saw that last year's stars are EPs....interesting.

Rachel McAdams....yes, yes, please.

Surprised by how much the press is killing this show...although I've only done a little googlin'
