Anyone else watching this? I’m half way through it now and it has been really enjoyable.  
[Here’s](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7902072/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1) the IMDB page.

Um, I guess I’ll wait and see if anyone else is watching but one question to start with, what does anyone who has seen it think of Michael C. Hall’s accent?

I have one episode left and I may or may not get around to it. I lost interest.

The accent is so bad I don’t even know how I got through as many episodes as I did. I loved him in Dexter, but this is just not his best work.

I gave it one episode and it didn’t really draw me in. I found it difficult to give two shits about the entitled teens.

Get’n old I guess. 🙂

I thought it sounded off but I’m no expert. Also, there are so many different English accents I wasn’t sure if it’s just one I’m not familiar with. It sure ain’t Manchester!

I usually agree about the entitled teens but luckily we don’t see too much more of them after a few episodes. Except Sia (the party host) whom I find hilarious (that story line is supposed to be funny, right?)
