I'm in 4 episodes. Is anyone else watching? I am unsure how I feel about it. I think it is an interesting story, but think the storytelling is weak. I'll give it 1 or 2 more episodes, but I'm wishing they would let us see the "how it happened" first.

I watched it. Yes, its too depressing and boring. Elizabeth Moss keeps getting roles in snoozefest tv shows. Mad Men for example. Shes a scientologist so I dont feel too bad.
I feel bad for Yvonne Strahovski however.Shes got real talent and she ended up on here? What the hell.

Personally, I really enjoy it. The beginning is a bit slow but by the end of the first episode, I was hooked. There's a lot of unexpected little twists. It's a really good show.

I think it's good, just disappointed in the way they use flash backs to explain how this all happened seemingly overnight. I think they need explain that better in the series. I just have a hard time with the editing and the way the director/producers seem to be telling the story...the story itself is fascinating. |

I read the book years ago and saw the first movie with Natasha Richardson. According to the director and the author, a lot was changed or updated from the original story in order to fit in with the current political climate and I think they've done a bang up job. I actually found the book a bit dry and the first movie, despite the cast, pretty much the same, but I'm watching every minute of the new version and look forward to each episode.
