Wow! Fabulous, binge watched this and loved every single second. So many '80s pop culture references, E.T, Firestarter, Stand by Me. If you, like me, grew up in the 80s, this is a must see! Next season, please, Netflix! :)

“It’s not only a feminist story, it’s also a human story.” Margaret Atwood, 2017 Think this can't happen? Just watch. What's extraordinary and horrifying is how current its issues are to all of us. THT pulls no punches - or slaps (Atwood cameo).Exposition is done brilliantly in the form of Elisabeth Moss' flashbacks and narration. Heard and seen only by the viewer, her thoughts help us understand what is happening, has happened and how. I'm only just at the start of episode two but this is an extraordinary show, one that will stay in my mind for a very long time. As has the book.

Really enjoy it, a new take on the police procedural. The tattoos themselves are a spectacularly original plot twist, as is the main character's - well, no spoiler's. Watch and see, you might like it! :)

Mindhunter is extraordinary, I'm hooked! This is my new favorite show. Yes it's dark but the two lead actors have such great chemistry and that does cause some funny moments. Anna Torv is amazing as their go-to psych advisor. I love how psychological the show is. The acting, pace, plotting, conflicts and setting are perfect.

It's not realistic but it's not meant to be, it's summer fun that I'm enjoying watching. A good first episode.. Fun, daftness, drama and secrets with a bit of humor thrown in. It may have flaws but it also has high production values and sincere acting combined with pretty good writing that does exposition not that badly.The pilot is just setting up the season and introducing characters = the usual pilot. If you liked the movie The Recruit then you'll see a couple similarities in the pilot. don't know if I should be diving into this in the first ep as it may not make renewal but hey, living on the edge, eh??? ;D

Politics, sc-fi, satirical comedy, family tensions, what more could we ask for! It's so much fun. It's so current that I wonder if it's a docudrama masquerading as fiction!* :D This should be syndicated to every country in the world so their citizens can collectively say, "That's what been going on with our politicians!" May this show never be cancelled.

Wow!!! Loved this. Chris Cooper is great, I'm not a fan of Franco but he's really good. I read the book when it came out and from this first episode it seems the tv show is going to be just as riveting. I know the book looks like a doorstop but it's a great read, only King could come up with such a fabulous premise for a novel and then have it be turned into a tv show. As he said, a 3-4 hour movie just couldn't have covered everything in the book so a series was the obvious choice (I'm paraphrasing). LOVE seeing the 1950s, well up when I see (an actor) Kennedy giving a speech, it's so authentic. Give it a try... :)

Outstanding, scary as hell, creeping unease grows into full blown horror! This show is my favorite show for summer.

I am late to the party but catching up and having so much fun! Tina Fey is a genius writer and actor and Alec Baldwin, well. It's all perfect, I love it!

Hilarious, irreverent, jaw dropping at times, it never fails to make me laugh. Stewie, evil baby and Brian the dog are so funny.
