I don't know how I'm going to feel about the conclusion of the show, but the interim is damned enthralling.
It is an interesting choice that the Libby character is the narrator for the story. The writing is pretty tight, and there is some facepalmy stuff when Eisenberg gets preachy. I don't know if that was the intention or not. Bot some of it is pretty tight like the comment about "I make 300K that would be a great living anywhere except the 40 blocks you insist we live." Most of the dialogue is really tight.
The 90's stuff is cheeky enough to be funny and keep it light. Eisenberg does a really REALLY good job on the performance. Same with Lizzy Caplan and Claire Danes, plus a TED sighting. It wound me up enough I restarted Homeland to get some more Claire Danes Action. She was really good. Damned compelling even.
Anyway, it's a nice look at the nuance of humanity.

This show is amazing.
And this latest episode released today - Me Time - is on par with any TV episode I’ve seen in a long, long time.
Claire Danes is ****ing brilliant. What a great show.
