    Anyone watching this?

    It stars Rosario Dawson and overall, I like it. Very stylistic.

    I was wondering though, does anyone know why it was bumped back to 11 at night? I know its a mini series so there isn't likely to be a second season, but why did the network bump it back so late?

    Love seeing Alan Cumming here - it's a "Josie and the Pussycats" reunion!

    I usually adore anything Sam Esmail does, and after just recently finishing the excellent Homecoming I wanted to give this one a shot, since he's the creator (not the director though) . This wasn't able to grab my interest at all. He's been criticized before for getting lost in his stylistic ideas to the point where the present nature and overall story stops mattering, and I understood it but never quite felt that until now. It's just really jarring and hard to sit through in my opinion, and to me the characters and their motivations aren't very important. Feels lame after especially after seeing masterful, impressionable work from this dude, but maybe it's because he isn't directing this time. Maybe I'll come back to it.
