Thanks for posting. I actually got it on DVD when it first came out but lent it to a friend and sort of forgot about it, even though he returned it. The production values, score, script and acting are Bond movie-level. This is one of the few series (along with Stranger Things) I've binged where I let the opening credits play every time because they are just so nifty. I was very worried about the dog in the first episode and it proves my rule of thumb that you never harm a dog, cat or child unless you're using the shock value to compensate for a poorly written story. Other series have done that and it's telling.
