Oh yeah.

I wouldn't say I had doubts. Everyone said that the show starts at #6. But I was totally on hold -- and now I'm not. I'm crushed I have to wait until tomorrow to rewatch.

I think my favorite thing (based on the one viewing) was the way the man on the street interviews amped everything up. We know slavery is bad. But are we willing to look hard at all the ordinary ways we manipulate and use people? If we view humans and human nature as totally malleable, is there anything to being human at all? Loved that stuff. How much are we allowed to do to alleviate our suffering?

Sigh.
