Easily one of the best TV shows I've ever watched. The acting, set design, CGI, everything is just superb. An interesting soundtrack with the main theme "I am the Clock" giving me chills every time I hear it play. There's an absurd level of planning that must have went into making every episode feel impactful and interlinked, with throwbacks to off-hand lines or background effects multiple seasons after the fact. I'm left with this paradoxical feeling of wishing there were another 4 seasons (at least!), while being so happy they didn't drag it out and instead gave us a satisfying and well deserved ending. I'd recommend this show to anyone looking to get into sci-fi, and hold it up as the standard of what can be achieved with a committed cast and talented screenwriters.

One of the greatest slow burn sci-fi shows I've ever watched. Makes you wish there there were 12 seasons 3 movies and 18 novels.
