The first episode was an interesting opening, setting things up and giving a background into Winston and his brother Frankie. The 70s setting is really well evoked to the point of being quite startling for younger viewers. The soundtrack is particularly excellent and keeps the vibe upbeat and pretty fast paced.
I feel like the writing got a bit more slick in the second episode and that felt more engaging to me. Winston is a pretty compelling character with a degree of charm and depth, but Charon is the one who stands out so far. Gibson is so-so but the writing and ensemble cast make up for it.
