August 29, 20187 yr I thought at first this was a historical series about the Russian family but it's an anthology set in the present day following different descendants in various cities. Premieres October 2nd. The cast looks terrific. https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2018/08/amazon-reveals-first-look-photos-episode-lineup-fo.html
October 13, 20187 yr first two eps are out on amazon. future episodes will drop every friday on an 8 episode season. early reviews are mixed. mad men took a while to find its awesomeness, so i wouldn't be surprised if this starts a little slow.
October 14, 20187 yr I enjoyed the first two episodes, but I see why the reviews are mixed. The episodes are like standalone movies and, so far, seem pretty independent of one another. I won't spoil anything, but there is a weird unevenness between the storylines and the endings.
October 14, 20187 yr I really liked it. Interested in seeing the rest of the family. Too bad it can't be binged.
October 18, 20187 yr Thought the first episode was great. Are all episodes around an hour and a half long?
October 20, 20187 yr Seriously, this show is so fucking weird, and not in a good way. Every episode is like half incomplete character study and half M. Knight Shyamalan movie. I don't hate it, but the "shocking twist" in every episode is really out of place. I don't care about any of the characters aside from the hotness factor of some of the actresses. I don't think it's that I'm just not getting it; seems to me like a big miss from the Mad Men guy.
