If someone is going in to it as a mystery fan like I am then it is an immense letdown. Not in the least bit intellectually stimulating but more of a dumb caper. Script is extremely poor but acting is good. Probably good for those who get their fix from unrealistic heists.
Getting my whodunit fix presently from Shetland. Slow like all British shows but well-detailed, well-shot and well-acted.
Spartacus is amazing! One of the best series I've watched. The amount of nudity is immense but don't let that overshadow the amazing storyline.
I started but could not keep on after the first few episodes. The soundtrack is mesmerizing though.
Yeah, Season 3 surely wasn't as good as the previous 2 which had a lot going on comparatively. However, it was like a soft reboot, much like it was for Discovery's crew in the storyline, so it was understandable.
I suppose I am more inclined to series which are episode based as in one story per episode. This slow burn requires patience and will force you to keep thinking and guessing till the end and the end is a long long way coming
. Riverdale starts off in a similar theme. Broadchurch is another. Twin Peaks does go off into a completely different track though.

I watched the original several years ago and the recent one as it was broadcast. I have watched a lot of David Lynch content, so I am okay with it.
You may be undone by the quirkiness, inability to make sense of what you are watching, left with a lot of questions and not have the satisfaction of loose ends being tied up.
It's not for everyone, you need to be familiar with its director previous work to actually like it. I don't like it at all as all David lynch work are in mind **** category

Have you watched the prequel to Spartacus as well. It came out after Season 1 when Andy Whitfield died and they had to look for another actor. So in the meantime, they made a prequel which showed the story of Krixus instead.
Yes, I started with season one to three and then saw prequel. I thought that is season four, but later did not make any sense to watch completely.
