First episode was meh, second piqued my interest, by the third episode I find myself really wanting to know what happens. I love the way they slowly trickle in information through each episode. I love trying to figure out Ed Harris's character.

Spoiler for spoiler:
The world building is done in such a way that it doesn't hold your hand, and I love that. For example, one of my first questions was if you couldn't get hurt, how is it a challenge? They answered that when the one guy on the business trip tried to break up a shootout and got shot himself. We are slowly getting more info about Ed Harris, too - apparently, he's a big shot in the real world since that one guy in his group went up to him being all fanboyish and Ed Harris threatened him since he's "on vacation".


I can't wait to see where this show goes.

Yeah, that was the one that really stuck with me. I'm through episode 4 and while I don't think there has been one individual story that rises to the top, they have all been consistently good.
