The series first episodes are captivating but gradually, once well within the story, starts to take you through long dream sequences which is a lazy way of bringing a little insight into certain aspects of the caracter. By the third one I was climbing up the walls and resisting the fast forward button. Great cinematography, costumes, settings but some caracteres such as the journalists are depicted in a very obvious cartoony way. Some acting is very good, some scenes not so much. This series could have been at least two episodes shorter and would've strengthened the plot. It took a little effort to plow through the last episodes.

Beautifully shot, well acted but ultimately dull. Far too long to get to the point. I've given up after episode two.

This should have been an hour and a half long made for television film not a short series. I really dislike when programme makers drag a story out just to make it so many episodes long. They turn a good story well acted into something that turns viewers off because of the length of time it takes to tell that original good story.

Please programme makers just make a good film! Is it because they have to pay Natalie Portman a fortune to have a name on the cast and need to get their moneys worth? I don't know but I'm bored so 5 stars and I won't be watching any more.

The characters are strong, deep and the acting is superb. The story is good, as is the adaptation to the format. The main characters are not necessarily to be liked, but rather understood.

I'm only through the fourth episode and would binge the rest if they were available, but now I'll wait for the rest each week. The parallel storylines melt together and double the intrigue. I truly do not understand why anyone could hate on this series. I'm really enjoying it.

Too early to say for sure, but I suspect a couple of additional episodes might have helped. Some of the backstories could have used more development and depth. Overall, I'm glad that we gave it a watch and recommend it.

I've watched like everything, and I mean everything, available streaming lately. This is so well done! I don't understand why people have an issue with it or can't see how well done it is. It's situations like this where I don't ever know whether I can actually believe reviews. Perhaps the intelligent writing a nuance are too much for simpler minds. Definitely add this to your watch list. Natalie Portman is amazing as are Moses Ingram and Mikey Madison (haven't seen her since the AMAZING "Better Things as Pamela Adelon's eldest daughter - her acting is so well done I had no idea for the first couple of episodes it was even her).

The whole cast is amazing and this is seriously one of the best shows I've seen recently. I can't believe that people are saying it's a "snoozer" or not well done. The only thing I'm mad about is that I stumbled upon it before all the episodes were out because I can't deal with not being able to see all of it at once!

Drama and story-telling for grown-ups.

I can see why some people don't like this. It's not conventional and simple story-telling. The two main characters, Cleo Johnson and Maddie Schwartz are deeply flawed people. Schwartz especially so, as she is quite unsympathetic and unlikeable. Johnson's story is that of a smart person who can't stop making bad choices. I find all this refreshing and relatable. It's so much more like real life. If you're bored with it, good for you - go back to your Marvel movies or 'Emily in Paris'.

I also get to play one of my favorite TV and movie games - spot the twist in advance. I know there's one or two big ones here, but by episode three they aren't revealed, so it's fun to try and guess. Maddie Schwartz was suspiciously quick in finding a murder victim in a very remote location; something tells me that will have a bearing on things.

Kudos also to Jennifer Mogbock in episode 1. Her character is forced to sing on stage while severely intoxicated and manages to turn it into something strange and beautiful. Actually 'strange and beautiful' sums up the best about this show when it's hitting its high notes.
