    the absolute greatest show to ever exist. no other series finale will make you feel more than this one. i felt the entire spectrum of human emotion watching this, and the most heart-wrenching moments shift as i gain more life experience. this series changed me and will continue to do so for years to come

    My partner and I have tried three times to watch this series... and each time, we cannot get past about episode 5 or 6 (of season 1). Don't find the character relatable or engaging in any way.
