Meh. I lost the will to live and keep watching after the entire episode chasing the fly somewhere through series two or three.
Yeah the slow pace was a problem. They could’ve condensed the whole thing into 1 series and not really missed anything – would’ve been (even more) brilliant! That is the nature of US TV though. FWIW series 4/5 were much better, highly compulsive viewing!
btw for something that bucks this trend (in that it’s only 3 episodes) check out Ascension. I think it’s on Sky this month. It’s really good. I’m sure they’ll ruin it though by continuing the story in another 100 episodes if it turns out to be popular!
Looking forward to Better Call Saul though.
