8. It's One Of The Best Action Shows Of The Past Decade
Few shows have this many exemplary elements in them. The acting, character work, action, tone, and pacing are all top of the class. This feels like TV's answer to John Wick: a pulpy, violent action show with memorable characters and an engaging world.
The emotion behind the action is always front and centre. There's always a reason for the extremely bloody fight you are watching. The action comes in when necessary, and finishes when it's no longer needed. You could be watching a cheesy fight between the Sheriff and a brash MMA fighter, but the weight of that fighter beating an innocent woman the night before still lingers.
If you're a fan of the action genre, you owe it to yourself to give this one a try.
