This was a fun one to go in blind on! I really enjoyed this first episode, though I’m still not sold on the series. This episode just gave me really strong “one-shot” vibes, y’know? They’ve sort of already resolved the initial conflict and tied up all the loose threads to the point where I’m not really sure what’s left to explore.

Well, whatever. I’ll stick around for another episode because the author & production team clearly have chops. It’ll be interesting to see if they keep the same lightly manic tone of the pilot or if they veer off into more grounded post-apocalyptic storytelling. I’d prefer the former, though I do think that would be the harder path to tread here!
