Awhile ago I read an article about the show, prior to it being released, and I thought it sounded kinda interesting... fast forward to now and I'd forgotten all about it, but when I saw the poster I was like oh yeah, I remember I wanted to check that out! I said to myself, I'm just gonna play the first 5 minutes, if it's good I'll come back and watch it later, if it's ehhhhhh then I'll just pass - well I didn't stop it after that first 5 minutes, I watched the first 4 episodes instead. I see the complaints that it's "not like the comics" it's based off of, and if that's important to you then you probably won't enjoy as much as myself and plenty of other people who had no clue there even was a comic. I think the story is original, poignant & heartfelt. The acting is flawless; Gus, Jep & Bear are great on their own and when paired in combination or all together they bring their characters, & their world to life. Gus is the embodiment of innocence, hope, joy... and who couldn't use a little more of that in their life right now! I can't wait to see all the different story lines finally converge in Season 2. If you are looking for closure at the end of Season 1 it's not there - & all I can say is, Netflix better be working on Season 2!
