An excellent adaptation of the brutally entertaining comic book. The creators haven’t brought out the big guns yet, but what they have done his is still way above the standard. Explicit humor, violence and gallons of blood, you’ll even find the missing penises from Game of Thrones here. The storyline with Starr is handled superbly, and Erin Moriarty looks great. Urban rules as Butcher and it's good to see Simon Pegg again.

As usual, I didn't read anything about it beforehand and thought this would be a "superhero" series. The first episode's plot hit me like an explosion. There were none of the issues that usually annoy me in superhero movies —instead, we got characters swallowing other people's teeth during accidents. Even the MeToo reference didn’t bother me, and dollars rule everything. Plus, the amazing soundtrack was a bonus. I really enjoyed this.
