I only started watching it because of Tom Hardy and he's only in it for 5 minutes per episode, max. It's very boring and very pretentious. The main guy has a weird face, I don't like him.

Have only seen the first season so far but really enjoying it. The negotiations and power dynamics remind me of early seasons of *Narcos*, though there are fewer surprising turns of story. Hopeful that the format of 6 episodes per season will keep things from being high entertainment density.
