This was great BTW. Not actually a comedy at all aside from some humorous points in early episodes.. got ahead of myself there. In fact the whole story flips, which I somewhat expected but not to the degree it did. Clever.

I'll still root for it but the story lines are getting a little kooky for me.

I was thinking/hoping it will be some myth based imaginative stuff like Del Toro's work or at least something different from what I used to because Norway. In the first scene a young girl saw troll faces in beutifually framed mountains and I thought "wow, this might be good". Turned out to be a stock Roland Emmerich film, I've turned it off after 45 minutes. The troll looked superb, though.

Absolutely loved this show.

Had a moment early on when I was thinking Claire Danes was like 10 years older than Jesse Eisenberg, then went and remembered that oh yeah, she was actually high school aged when playing a high school student on My So-Called Life, and she's only four years older than Eisenberg.
