Well done and well researched, with interviews and commentary from former and current members of far right groups. The 1 star reviews are clearly from those butthurt about being exposed and scrutinized, as this is presently and historically accurate, which is what makes it terrifying. Hate does come from all directions, but there is no question on what direction is responsible for the current threats to our nation. Of some comfort are the interviews with former members of hate groups who have grown to understand and change their ways, renouncing their beliefs in white supremacy . Maybe there is some hope for us yet.
For the people saying there are no likable characters, character development takes more than a single hour in a pilot episode. I actually thought Matt Smith was fantastic as Damon; violent and aggressive, but with a clear and deep love for his family. We'll see how the story plays out, but for a pilot, I found it gripping. Of course, you have the same brutality that made GOT so watchable. I think this has great potential.
I didn't realize this was based on the book of stories by Cecelia Ahern, which I own but haven't read yet. On the surface, these stories are abstract, absurd, and likely not for everyone. But if you understand the metaphors (abusive relationships, trophy wives, etc.), this is a well-done, well-written anthology.
