It certainly doesn’t mean I’d recommend the show, but I always appreciate how having to watch something I wouldn’t normally watch for review ends up establishing these interesting, unexpected media relationships.Īnyway. But the storytelling actually improved a fair bit in the show’s final third, which was a nice reward for my time.

My initial feelings on the show weren’t substantially shifted by finishing it – the show’s attempts at seriousness were still both overwrought and deeply undercut by its absurd villains, and ultraviolence for its own sake remains Not My Thing. No half measures here, I watched twenty-nine goddamn episodes of gunslinging and explosions. The whole damn thing, too – the first season, the Second Barrage, and even Roberta’s Blood Trail.
