…I finished binging this yesterday…it was a very difficult watch and because of those storylines, not something that could be said of…’I enjoyed…’…it was intense, it was riveting, it was so incredibly well acted with characters who we really so much, came to care about…one of the most powerful watches I’ve experienced of recent times…
