Yeah. First 2-3 episodes were kinda thin. Episode 5 (the standalone with Jake Johnson and Cristin Milloti) was outstanding, and things improved from there on. I just watched the quarantine episode last night and thought that was very strong as well.

More so than the Netflix version of A Series of Unfortunate Events? That was very Wes.

Whoa! You weren't kidding. It's like a non-stop stream of Accidentally Wes Anderson's Instagram account. What a cast though!
