In my opinion the high rating could be due to recent frustration by fans of this genre, but with that said, this show is definitely good.

However, some aspects don't quite fit and it seems like they are trying too hard. Do we really need to hear any more about social media, PR, pressuring government leaders, blackmail, etc? Just focus on the us vs. them and leave the fluff out.

My other gripe is the accents, which just makes it hard to understand the actor's lines. Stop making me focus so hard, I'm trying to catch up on my social media feed....
