There is a lot I disliked about this series, but the production values were top notch: I'm not sure what you would find acceptable. It blew Netflix's most recent attempt out of the water in terms of looks and is equivalent to an HBO prestige production in that arena. I have no idea what they were going for with Joe Blake but whatever it was they missed badly. If he had been killed, however, the show would have totally redeemed itself he is the worst loving character. All of the cast aside from Frink, Blake, and McCarthy were great and I won't fault Crain's actor for getting stuck with two screen black holes. I don't know if is worth a season 2 or where they would go with it, but pacing is a serious problem that infects everything else about it.

Platystemon posted:The worst character is Ed McCarthy. This is non‐negotiable. yeah, he was terrible too, but we don't see that much of him. Also lol at how contrived the attempted pistol destruction was. Like, there are no deep bodies of water in SF, or sewers or whatever; no, gotta melt it likes it's the terminator

Irony of course is that Teller, Ulam and Fermi, important contributors to the atom bomb and critical to the hydrogen bomb's advent, all left Europe because of antisemitism.
