    Anyone else watch this? It seems to be getting good reviews. I liked the first episode.



    Mary Elizabeth Winstead is the lead and features Tony Shalhoub in a supporting role.

    I like the new theme song each week.

    That will come in handy in the future when my wife and I get around to watching it on DVD or some streaming service.

    Really liked the second episode too.
    If they can maintain the same good balance between political satire and over the top sci-fi grotesque, they might have the makings of a mini-classic.

    This has now become my favorite new TV show. Though in fairness, it has little competition.

    Mary Elizabeth Winstead is predictably adorable and the plot and setting are almost ridiculously topical.

    I loved the little "2001: A Space Odyssey" reference in this latest episode.

    This is easily the best show on TV right now. The political satire is very funny, but at the same time, it's a genuinely suspenseful show, in its very own way.

    I hope they can keep up this quality.

    Oh man, I wonder who needed more convincing to shoot that scene: Michael Moore or Mary Elizabeth Winstead! :ROFLMAO:

    I really enjoyed this show. Lovely ensemble, unique funny premise, a labor of love for all involved, or so it would seem.

    Not sure how realistic a second season is or how it could match the first season for quality.
