It's difficult to think of anything to criticize about this show. Everything about it is superb and the writers manage to keep your attention from start to finish. The acting is good throughout as is the action which is often horrific but necessarily so. The characters are complex even many who are playing minor roles and the writers don't shy away from human debasement as well as honour. The script is terrific and manages what so many series can't in that the end comes naturally and smoothly and is, overall, extremely satisfying. The lead carries off a demanding portrayal of a damaged man with aplomb and is eminently watchable.
