I am looking forward to watching the first episode tonight (or maybe tomorrow night when I have a bit more time). The premise looks interesting. Part Miss Peregrine's Home for Unusual Children part low-key superhero mix, I am curious to see the newest offering from HBO. Plus, a Victorian setting? I am all in! (at least for the first episode). Jinkies!

(comes with some cloud space to record) I think that's the last hurdle.

I don't know if Myth TV has anything like that. Heck, I don't know if anyone does. But it is a good idea. As far as The Nevers, very interested. Last edited by Pandemonium; Sun 11/04/21 20:59 UTC.

I loved the characters, each one different with their own quirks.. no 'cookie cutter' collective here. The actors chose for the parts have truly made the characters their own. So far, one episode in, loving the show! Great premise, enough unanswered questions to keep it intriguing as the story unfolded. Definitely worth watching, so far! Jinkies!

Some of the twists (especially the one at the end of episode 2) were easy to see coming, but I am enjoying watching and seeing where the show is going to take me. I am definitely enjoying the steampunk aspects Jinkies!

And surprised my wife was into to it as well. We loved the chemistry between Amalia and Penance. Fast friends! And the steampunk was very fun. Look forward to more. Thanks for the tip, Mina!

I did have to laugh and cringe at the CGI Golden Gate Bridge. I know they're all trapped in Vancouver - but really?!? I guess it must be that Stanley Park - San Francisco vortex that we've all been expecting.
