I binged this a few days after it came out, and I absolutely loved it! Great story, characters, and acting all around. And the music choices are fantastic!
Also, though I've never read the comics, my sis was a HUGE fan of them (she was very into Gerard Way and My Chemical Romance when we were growing up). She loved the show and said that it was adapted really well! She also said that while she wasn't originally sure how they were going to handle Five, she loved what they did with his character.
Wow I really enjoyed this! Love love love Robert Sheehan he's fantastic.
OMG THIS. Have you seen Misfits? Between him, Joe Gilgun, and Iwan Rheon, it's 10/10 worth watching
