Haven't seen any chatter here a out the new Murderbot show.

My wife and I are absolutely loving it so far, feels like a really faithful and respectful adaptation to the books, with most of the changes being positive!

Anyone else watching this?

To be honest I've only seen the first two episodes and they didn't really grab me.

I enjoyed the books a lot when I read them, but never felt like it would adapt well to TV since so much exposition happens in the main character's head.

Does it get better in later episodes?

Its more of the same. I'm loving it, but it definitly different than the books

Thanks, I might just binge it once all the episodes have aired.
