I watched the first episode and it just...didn't grab me. Even with Olympia Dukakis and a half-dozen other interesting people. It was...lackluster.

Maybe it gets better, I dunno, but I wasn't enthralled (and had no idea it was a book).

OP

That's totally fair. I'm not objecting to people not liking the show (if one of the pairings didn't hit many of my buttons I might not have watched past the first episode either, tbh), I just find the total lack of attention the show has gotten from the woke crowd (for lack of a better term) rather strange.

Like the wank surrounding ScarJo and a cis-person playing a trans character - so many people got angry at Hollywood and entertainment at large at casting cis straight people for queer roles, but then a there's a show that made a point of hiring queer writers and queer actors for queer characters and no one cares. It feels very weird to me.
