HO-LEE SHIT!

1. Gonna watch it in a bit. I like it so far.

2. I know that slow storytelling is all the rage

But good grief this is overripe. We're what four shows in and don't know a whole lot more than after the first one. I think it's a well done show but give us a plot point or two or at least one reveal. There was more in Ripe than before but not much more than could have been deduced and even tonight we don't know for sure what happened; will have to wait till next week.

3. It seems to be building momentum though

and Adorra is getting truly weird. I smell an Emmy for Patricia Clarkson.

6. I agree on both

Felt for a long time Patricia Clarkson has been underrated and it is building momentum.

4. It's a good slow story. Next episode should be interesting. You are right though,

there are lots of slowly evolving series nowadays. At least they aren’t taking a 2 hour story and turning it into 8 hours to sell crappy stuff.

It reminds me of first True Detective that took forever to get to the meat, but I missed it as soon as it was over.

I do like the characters in this one.

7. You're right it isn't as slow as True Detective

I also like the characters. I got to see Amy Adams in person at a film festival. Her skin is porcelain. Just otherworldly beautiful.

5. I have all of the episodes DVR'd...I'm planning on binging...

I like the cast for sure.....
