I've heard nothing but great things about The Queens Gambit so I decided to give the limited series a chance. What a waste of time. It starts off with a head full of steam and then it falls flat. After the first episode, the show just wasn't good anymore. I'm trying to figure out why the show is rated so high. Maybe because it's overhyped? Probably...Now, I will praise the acting but that's it. The show is sllllooowwwww at times. Some scenes just drag on and on with no end in sight. That's one of my biggest issues. Please don't feed into the hype. The first episode will hold your attention and you'll want to come back for more. However after that first episode you'll find yourself yawning more than usual. You may even fall asleep (My wife). The show is not 10 or a 9. Heck, not even an 5. It's a 1/10.
