Give it time! This show is a slow burn and I have to admit, it almost lost me a couple of episodes in. I was feeling like there was too much back story and at the same time we knew nothing. Wow, was I wrong. It is an original idea that keeps you guessing. The mood, the tone, the writing, the cast, everything is just perfect. I seriously can't wait for Season 2!

The Mystery of the Mystery things. Not the best X-Files episode I've seen, one of the better episodes of Lost I guess. Style over substance and a strong lack of charisma from the cast. Maybe that's the point, some sterile Coproate Empire attempting to bring humanity to its consumerist knees, but honestly, once I'd gotten to the black goo, I kinda ceased to care. Adam Scott plays Mark, or Malk, or something, someone? Maybe. He's been in some other stuff, you'll recognise him if not actually remember, his careers a mystery, a mystery as bland as this show. There's Christopher Walken, John Turturro and Patricia Arquette lending star power if not "star" performances, but hey easy money, why not? They're absolutely wasted in this, but I hope they enjoy the $$$. It's like the creator really, really liked the "Black Goo" element of the X-Files and wrote a fanfic whilst slacking off from some dead end job. In the interim he saw the buzzword "liminal" on a creepypasta forum and liberally shoehorned that in. This is reflected in some ~retro, mildly anachronistic set design, props and IT-type things. Like a mute-colour palette Wes Anderson, but not good-era Anderson, pastiche of himself Anderson. This needs to wrap up next season. It won't, it'll just get stretched out as fApple's premier show, but this is no reason whatsoever to veer away from piracy - which is realistically how anyone's bothering to watch this slop. It's bizarre how we're actually living in a dystopian nightmare and people choose to watch one. Maybe if the entire thing were condensed to 6x hour long episode it would be tolerable, I'm only hanging on because I'm hoping for an active shooter on set. Gash.
