I watched episode 1 last night and am glad they didn't go the comic 
book look with their cinematography.  It reminds me more of The 
Killing in style. I'm not going to binge watch though.  Hell, I 
haven't even finished the last episode of House of Cards yet.  I'm not 
OCD enough to binge watch I guess.


So I also watch episode 4 of The Code last night.  I see it was Sal 
you watched it back in December.  I'm waiting for the Scooby Doo 
part.  The actor who plays Charlie Issacs in Manhattan plays the 
autistic brother of the Internet journalist.
