Vince Gilligan is back, baby!

Haven't watched the first 2 episodes yet but might as well get this thread started now.

I got a 3 month free trial from Apple that timed out just right for this show. I've watched the first two episodes and really enjoyed them. This is gonna be a good one.

 

[BeTheMatch]

That was as good of a first episode of anything I've ever seen. Holy smokes. Actually has me worried that rest of the show can't possibly be as good as this setup.

Man, oh, man.

Guess we are somehow logged in under my son's account, watched the first couple episodes, lot to say but also want others to have a chance to watch the first episode and two and share their experiences. Feels like they are shadowing society mostly and a lot of the dialogue could be relevant to things happening right now around us

Hard to explain the show but once you watch you'll catch on quickly. Not sure if it will be a hit or not, overwhelming positive reviews from almost everyone who gets paid to watch these shows
I would encourage people to at least give the first couple episodes a try and then decide if it's for you

-7 day free trial available, would assume this show is included as I'm sure they want as many people to watch it as possible and get them hooked

Yea first two episodes are incredible. Last half of episode 1 is about as good as tv gets, that was awesome.

 

[Wingnut]

Loved the first episode, 2nd episode was solid. 100% in.

Rhea Seehorn is so ******* good.

Incredible start. I love how fast paced it is. Best pilot I've seen in a long time.

Gilligan says 3 seasons but he acknowledged he originally said that about Breaking Bad and it went longer.

With such a higher budget I am scared of networks being networks and them ending up cancelling this one. I will riot.

Nah, he had a bidding war for this show and chose Apple because they gave him the money needed and the time he wants to make it. You can settle in for this one.

Great first show. Second episode was solid. NIce mix of dark humor and action with a remix on a classic premise. Hopefully it avoids getting all political and preachy as long as Gilligan is the showrunner.

:Seehorn:

 

[Major]

After 2 episodes, I'm all in. In Gilligan, we trust

Saw the first episode. It was awesome. Seehorning this for later.

 

[northern exposure]

I was late to the party on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, but I watched the first two episodes of this show the day after they dropped. Thought it would be difficult to live up to the hype....but it did!

 

[Galileo]

Watched the first episode...they set the trap. Now they want me to buy a subscription to see the rest.

This is scifi? I've avoided almost all info on it before we start it.

For sure. Not a typical one though, or not so far at least

Gotta disagree here. Gilligan said the goal was to “hit every trope and touchstone that the sci-fi movie world presents to us.” He specifically referenced Invasion of the Body Snatchers, which is what the show's premise is loosely based on. He also said they plan on taking on all of the classic sci-fi tropes and putting their own spin on them.

Through 2 episodes it is not a typical sci-fi show, IMO. I hadn't read anything about it

After two episodes it seemed to me like a modernized remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, with one significant twist.

Yea I just think of typical sci-fi as battlestar galactica and star trek and **** like that. Maybe I have too narrow a definition though
