    That was a great episode. The last five minutes or so were really well done.

    Very effective plot twists/cliffhangers at the end of each episode!

    Really enjoying it. First two episodes were great. The third was a bit mediocre, but that's bound to happen in a show like this. Reminds me a bit of Broadchurch, but a bit darker and grittier.Kate Winslet is a great actress. I've enjoyed her in just about everything, except for Titanic (what an awful movie).

    Both are accurate. It bucked the trend though of recent HBO docs. It actually had enough material for 6 episodes. It wasn't just 3-4 episodes of filler.
    Agree. First HBO docuseries I’ve liked in a while.

    The episode where Hippolyta travelled through time and space was one of best episodes of TV I’ve seen in a long time.

    Finished it yesterday. It's really interesting. I enjoyed it a lot.

    Spoiler for Who is Q?:
    I think it's clearly Ron and his Dad knows about it.
