so we missed it when it started and are playing catch-up. one episode to go but man, is it just me or is this one of the best series in recent memory?

great acting - best direction. the thing i'm most stumped by is that there's only 4 seasons. can completely see at least another season here right?

I don’t see it as glorifying, but I can see how that comes across. The amazing thing about the show is that there is this tiny relatable piece in every single one of the characters - they all just want to be loved by their family. They all have an incredible bond, which they have no qualms in using to manipulate the others to get their own selfish ways.

I think it’s the tension and duality which makes the show compelling. It clearly also shows the corrupting influence of power through the various characters at various time, so I can’t agree that there’s any intention to glamourise wealth.
