    Love the show, but starting to hate the main character

    The music, the photography, the art direction, the stellar performances, everything in this show is top notch... But jesus, i'm getting really tired of the series of stupid, selfish decisions that the main character is always taking.

    Excellent opening to a new season!

    This season's opening episode was tense, emotional, sad, exhilarating, and ultimately vindicating! I hope the rest of the season is just as good!

    Perfect

    An incredible opening episode for a truly remarkable series the cinematography was outstanding at times like still paintings reminiscent of Dutch realist masterpieces. It was an emotional rollercoaster but this time they were more highs and lows.

    This show just gets better and better

    The season 3 opener is almost like a season finale. It's a feast of truly stunning cinematography, mind blowing soundtrack, beautifully written script & cast that takes you on an emotional roller coaster, they're that good. Possibly one of the best HMT episodes to date!
