Wasting three hours on this was quite enough. It's the usual Netflix 10 episode season formula. Why on earth Netflix thinks that dragging things out endlessly to fill that ten hour time slot - like just about every other show they produce - is a good thing is beyond me. In these three episodes I watched there were perhaps 30 minutes of story, if I'm being generous. The rest is Netflix's same old filmmaking-by-algorithm that is starting to get very tiresome by now.

I haven't read the source material, so I can only judge the show on its own merits. It's all style over substance. If you mix X-Men with Watchmen, you're pretty close to this show. Nothing feels original, which I am sure is why the Netflix algorithm gave a green light to this project.

One thing that really stands out is how horrible many of the actors are. Whoever told Mary J Blige she could act, deserves to be slapped. And the same goes for the guy who plays Klaus, who I'm sure they thought would be a comic relief, but it's painful to watch him try and have everything fall flat.
