The talking monkey made me not want to watch it. I forget why I added it to my list, but I figured I'd just watch one episode, and then remove it from my list.
2 seasons watched later, I have to wait for season 3 on a cliff hanger. The wife watched the whole thing with me as well, so that is saying something, given how off beat the overall story line is.
Anyway...it is a pretty decent waste of time. I recommend it. I'm disappointed I don't have another episode to watch tonight.

I actually signed up for YouTube’s pay site to watch that when it originally dropped. They had a couple of original shows that were pretty good. Heard recently that CK season 3 is hitting Netflix 1/8.
Another one that looks better than I thought it might be.

I thought they stuffed way too much into episode 6. If that had been broken up into 2 episodes (one focused mostly on NY, one focused on Paris and its aftermath), I think it would have worked out better. Eight episodes instead of seven . . . a little breathing room. That’s my only criticism. Thought it was terrific.

Thought it kind of lost itself in aggressive darkness for a few episodes, but recovered. Hope there is a season 2.

There was real darkness in just about every episode. I guess what I mean is that in many episodes there was some balance, with lighter moments and humor. A couple episodes in the first half were just dark-on-dark, where I thought they needed a little balance. I genuinely think episode #1 was one of the best launch episodes I’ve seen for any show. I was hooked early during the episode — musically set to DARKSIDE’s “A3” — in which word of the discovery of Utopia spread through the group. Great scene.
Don’t want to do spoilers, but the loss of a character early was a gut punch that was tough to come back from. I’m sure you know what I mean. Gutsy move, though. Good show.
