This is really well done. The cast are all terrific. Composition of shots, directing and lighting are fresh. I honestly loved this show and hope to watch it further. I love that for the first time all season this is the only show I think is not predictable or populated with flat actors doing their best but best just isn't mesmerizing. It's hard to rock my world, but I was fascinated with the way every minute of this unfolded. Try it. I am fairly certain you will be ready for at least a good second look.
This is a pilot for bright people who have some experience with relationships that involve real people. The title character (this is not a spoiler) is complicated, and you will thank every god you know of that he does not explain himself, does not speak to the camera and does communicate through expression more than he communicates with dialogue.
Supporting cast have been seen but do not overwhelm the mix. The pilot does not try to develop everyones character beyond what you see. I am so grateful. This pilot is like an incredibly well cooked dish with intense flavors, served on a perfect white plate. Like in that gifted restaurant, when you are done eating you will find you feel energetic enough to go for a walk in the perfect evening air, satisfied that when you come back next week, another perfect offering will be offered.
