For me to like a show and return to it, I need to be invested in the characters from the beginning and that's what roped me in. Mike is my fav. I know the story but still I'm like Dan, wtf are you even doing?! I wasn't sure how I'd feel about Ellen being a grown up as Dan gets out of prison, but that's the most interesting part. I always want to know what's next in the storyline so this is a cool addition. I'm eager to see what happens with their relationship.
The different perspectives from Dan and Alex are a nice spin. Nothing unexpected there but I do love me a crazy "erotic thriller" where someone is obsessed with someone else and someone inevitably dies. Look, my job is challenging so this is exactly the kind of tv drama I look forward to. Easy entertainment that quiets my brain is okay sometimes.
I've enjoyed seeing Joshua Jackson flourish as an actor as a grown up (Dawson's Creek/Pacey fan, I was and forever will be) and I like him as Dan. Lizzy plays a great Alex with those crazy intense eyes. I love Amanda Peet in everything she does.
Maybe it's because I haven't compared this to the original movie (which you shouldn't do anyway), or maybe it's because I'm a sucker for some naked dramas, but I finished all three released episodes in one night and I'm ready for the rest.
