Anybody watching this new HBO series?

I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Started watching this past weekend and it is great.  Very interesting premise, great acting, and has me thinking about some of the ethical implications and what I'd do in those scenarios.

I watched the first episode and it is OK but I am not sold yet. I will watch the second and see if it is worth my time.

I have yet to watch it, but the next episodes won't be until 2018?

That is my understanding.  Kinda sucks to wait... but its like waiting for the sequel for a good movie.  At best its 2 to 3 years usually.

Thought it was great. Loved the last episode, so many twists.

Music was fantastic too.

only one more episode left in season 2...  anyone else been watching?

I've found some of the last few episodes a little tedious, trying to get the timeline right in my head, and (spoiler alert) there's like an entire episode spoken in Sioux with subtitles).  But its still worth the effort to watch.  Can't wait for the 90 minute final episode next week and hoping there's a season 3 in 2020 (or sooner!)

I want to watch this but don't have HBO.  Maybe at some point in the future.

Wait for the season to be over and do the Amazon trial period for channels.

You can catch up on Silicon Valley too since it just recently ended too.

ok, seasons over! I just finished the finale. It can be a confusing show, but the ending was great.  They left it open for another season, obviously, but if it never gets renewed there was plenty of closure.  And like any good HBO show, they killed off a lot of people.  If they new make season 3, I'll be really interested to see who's in the cast.
