They should have stripped the content down to 8 episodes. Some definitely dragged. But easily solid enough to watch right through. That was one hell of a hook in the first episode.
Reminding me a lot of how I felt getting through the first season of Netflix's 'Bloodlines' -- slow burn intensity/suspense of watching flawed characters do bad things in a beautiful setting/locale.
I am five episodes in and have really enjoyed it so far. I can see where it seems to drag on a bit. I am not really sure how there are five more episodes to go. Still really looking forward to finishing the series.
