Anyone else watch this?

Very trippy but also very interesting.

Probable helps to be a comic nerd, which I am, but I'm not sure you have to be.

Is this the one with Tom Hardy and the guy who played the High Sparrow from GOT?

No, that is Taboo. This looks like an x-men type of thing, but I haven't seen it yet

Very "trippy" is a good way to describe it.

I liked it a lot up until the very end when it turned into a sort of X men story. The thing I've always disliked about the "X men" was that they were to powerful and never really are threatened by humanity's "fear" or "prejudice". That's why I liked the first part of this show - the "mutant" was at the mercy of the bad guys in a way that made you worry about his safety.

I'll watch a couple of more episodes and see where they take it.

Thought the first episode was fantastic

I'm hoping this remains much more grounded.... more trippy, mind bending stuff and less super powers.
