Audience members shared favorable reactions across social media platforms following the launch. “Just binged the entire season today and I have to say, I loved it,” one viewer posted on X. Another added, “They couldn’t have chosen anyone better than Domhnall Gleeson to carry this show. Perfect casting.”
