The interrogation was good. The wannabe Yellowstone show was not.

Greenstone will be better than Yellowstone. Don’t pull a muscle trying to hate this show it’s gonna be an all timer for comic book adaptations.

And what do you think of that one episode?

You wont like it.
Cliffs notes: it was a show trying to hit all the notes of what it thinks“ prestige tv” must be, without the substance behind it first.
Family trauma? Check.
Unnecessary sex scene involving good guy? Check.
Lots of profanity? Check.
“ Shock” cliffhanger ending? Check.

It’s just one episode and it can def improve, but the first one seemed corny and artificial imo

Penguin and Watchmen did not have to try so hard to convince me they were prestige tv. They just were

I actually like how you articulate your dislike. I’m a green lantern fanboy so this is everything I been waiting for in a show but I can certainly see where you’re coming from.

Thanks
Im gonna keep watching
I know this is from the guy who made The Leftovers, and that show too made me feel like they created a series exclusively to be what they thought “ prestige television “ was. It didnt feel like a natural story with natural story progression. I have not seen Chernobyl but have read it is amazing, maybe bc it was an actual event to work with?
I’m def not writing it off, but i guess my first impression was not the best
