Seeing Peter Dinklage ready to fight neo-nazis 1 on 3 in the middle of the street at broad daylight, is the kind of punk this show aims for, and it's so refreshing when most mystery/detective/noir shows always try to paint the authorities as the good guys. Well this show takes a whole different approach.
The formula of this show is a bit curious, because each episode has some choice guest appearances that you then seemingly say goodbye to pretty quickly, maybe after 1 or 2 episodes and then they're never to be seen again. It's obviously still too early to tell if this is actually how it is, but it would be a shame if that's the case as all the talent is amazing.
On the other hand, it helps paint a picture of the environment in a unique way, almost like the story was written from the point of view of someone close to the main protagonist who only knew the people indirectly. Like if you ever tagged along with your parent and met some of their friends that one time and that's all the impression of them you ever got.
And since this show is about an eccentric writer and his relationship to primarily his daughter, I can see how the show might written in this way for a reason not yet uncovered. Time will tell.
Definitely worth a watch for people that don't enjoy the usual copoganda slop, but do enjoy uncovering a mystery.
