Just started this one...it's got a gimmick where the episodes can be watched in any order. Only two episodes in so im not sure how that changes things but so far its decent.
It focuses on a team planning to rob a vault.
My order….determined by netflix I guess…
Black (technically just an intro to the concept)
Yellow
Green
Blue
Orange
Violet
Red
Pink
White

Yeah, that sounds gimmicky alright.

Yeah, that sounds gimmicky alright. I’m not expecting brilliance but if it can entertain for 8 episodes or whatever then I’ll be happy. |

I intend to watch it soon. I am curious about the gimmick, how that is going to work out. I think I am going to go with the alphabetical order.

Had only vaguely heard of it. Wikipedia lists the episodes with the relevant timeframes. I'd probably be boring and watch them "chronologically" by that, with the possible exception of White, which is intended to be viewed last.

Finished it last night. Definitely a show that build up steam and momentum…and my interest…as it went on. The somewhat random viewing order made digesting the story interesting. I don’t know if it’s better chronologically but the way I did it was jumping around all over the place. But Red Pink and White felt particularly placed episodes.
I’m surprised how bleak it was. When I started this it felt like a fun heist series, like an Oceans 11 or something but by the end…we’ll let’s just say more than a few people don’t make it to that “6 months later” episode.

I finished over the weekend. I enjoyed it, but I think that was in great part due to the "gimmick" of watching it out of chronological order. Piecing it all together was a big part of the fun for me; I don't know if the story is strong enough to stand if it were simply a heist mini-series.

I just finished it last week. It started out kind of slow, but I stuck with it because I enjoy Giancarlo Esposito's and Rufus Sewell's performances. It was worth it.
