I didn't expect much, but the first episode surprised me by being pretty goo. I agree with you about the dance scene - best moment of episode one IMO. I also liked the fight scene with Istanbul (Not Constantinople). Really good use of music in this show.

The script doesn't strike me as being all that strong, but fortunately the acting seems to be strong enough to compensate. Ellen Page, Robert Sheehan (the junkie), and Aidan Gallagher (the kid) really elevate whatever they're given, IMO, and the others don't seem weak, either (I just don't feel like I've seen enough of them yet to properly gauge it).

Yeah, the plot is definitely very, like, what I would expect from that kind of indie-comics stuff. But the acting is really good and charming - Ellen Page is an absolute peach.

Robert is killing it. Like, hands down right now, Klaus is my favourite just because of Robert's performance.

As soon as I saw Robert, and realized that his character is basically Nathan from Misfits Version 2.0, I was like, oh this is gonna be good. He's so good at playing a little punk-ass loser asshole who you just want to punch repeatedly - but who you somehow can't hate because you kind of admire his audacious insuppressibility.

Though personally, I think Five is my favorite at the moment. Mainly because I'm really, really impressed by Aidan Gallagher's ability to play an adult in a kid's body. Usually with stuff like that I wince and brace for disappointment, because it's almost never believable that the character is actually an adult. But so far I find Gallagher's performance really convincing.
