A couple of episodes were slow, but some of them were good, and the season finale was epic. And I'm glad it has been renewed for a second series.
A well made, cinematic and brilliant acting, especially by James Bryhan as the Archivist and his interaction with Freddy Karter. I would love to see what happens next with the Archivist, considering his archives had been broken into and if , like many of the other characters, had something special about him. Overall, a brilliant script, fantastic acting and a series that most certainly deserves all the awards heading its way..
