Anyone watched this yet? What are your thoughts?

I did watch it, I didnt love it. I felt like people are/were praising the main actor and imo his scenes with himself felt a bit flat to me. Both of his characters had the same tone of voice. So the scenes with him and his counterpart together just didn't work for me.

I also thought the plot moved too fast. He almost accepted that he was a counterpart and that there was an alternate universe just way too quickly. I wish they had taken a bit more time just explaining/revealing that fact instead of immediately jumping into the storyline. But we'll see where it goes.

Personally, i thought the plot in episode one was a bit slow and too boring in parts. I had to google it to fully understand what it was about and what was going on. Episode 2 was a bit better.

I thought the pilot was ok, thought it would be better.

I loved it and agree with the extremely positive reviews.

Although like another poster said the title character accepted things st a quick pace

Let us know when you do

I thought episode 2 was a lot stronger than episode 1 as well, it felt more cohesive to me and like they really had a plot in mind and like the storyline was going somewhere.

I liked learning more about Nadia and her past. It's sad her counterpart is dead but honestly, I am not sure where they would have taken that character anyway. I understand why Nadia turned out how she did in a way, but I also wonder what her agenda is. Why did she want to kill or try to kill the wife?

I'm still confused on the storyline but I do like that we got a few more answers this episode, like finding out that the alternate timeline didnt always exist, only for the past 30 years. And according to the last scene it seems that the people in the regular timeline did something to the people in the other timeline? Maybe? I dont know.

I like when the counterparts work together and interact and I like seeing more depth to both of their characters. I do wonder if the main guy and the wife in the au world will meet though. That'll be an interesting moment. And what happened to the couple in the AU world, why are they no longer together?

I will continue to watch out of pure curiosity but the show will have to continue at this pace for me to stick with it I think otherwise I can see myself getting a bit bored/frustrated with it.

I thought E2 was good, but I'm still not quite into it, i want to be as I really like J.K. Simmons.

Hopefully it will get a little better as the eppy's go along, otherwise I might have to let it go..

Alexa

I feel the same.

Episode 3 was good but a little on the slow side. Not as much action but a lot of information and I had a hard time following it all even though I was actually watching and paying attention. lol. So we'll see where it goes...

I've given up on this show now.

crazy_diamond

I actually thought E3 was the best one so far and the the reveal was a bit

sourburst

^makes me want to pick the show back up now

Alexa

I liked 2 the best so far, followed by 1, but i need to watch episode 4. I am going to give it a handful more before i give up. and even though I will probably just put it on hold.

I think I might try and binge watch once it's all out.
