I was _not_ prepared for this show to likely become the thing I'm most psyched about in this surrounding two years; and yet here I am, witnessing all signs pointing to the rest of the season living up to that honor.

This was _soo much **better than the poor trailer** for it originally had me expecting._ Yes, I later learned more information — that Damon Lindelof, of LOST and The Leftovers, was behind it — eventually getting me more interested; but I certainly wasn't confident, given the trailer.

This has me remembering how good the movie actually was... I kind of lost track of my memories of how intense it was and how involved it's last act was...

==Anywho, on to the real reason I had to post something.. Timepoint 59 mins and 59 seconds in the episode is what finally gave me what I was truly waiting to validate: that there was no way that the soundtrack could be so NIN without actually being **NIN / Trent Reznor / Atticus Ross.**==

10/10.
