I am watching it.
LOVE:
-the build-up in the first 3 episodes. The weird pastiche of artsy/film noir/60's-psychedelic/bond.
-the acting
-the sets
-the peculiar immorality/nihilism
-the "quick-cuts" of either intense foreshadowing or just plain wackiness (like when they showed the "dog man").
-the alternate universe London
-how very smart the first 3 episodes seems
-the alternate UK "events" (executions, may-poles, Nazis still around?)
NOT LOVING:
-the weirdly forced/wedging in of the Waynes.
-the identified villians (kinda weak), but I suspect the real villains are not who we think they are
-the lack of consistency of Alfie
-real people in the alternate universe-- e.g, Crowly and Turing (yeah, they changed his name).
-the inconsistency of the era; seems to be 60's, but also mid world-wars, sometimes it seems 20's, sometimes 50's.
It's a VERY cool show. I'm on episode 6, and I feel that last 2 episodes kind of have the show falling apart or unraveling. Maybe not. I'm in for the duration.
