We watched this series on Netflix after hearing loads of great recommendations from friends and family, but we both found it really drawn out, slow and underwhelming. It was a slog to get through the 7 episodes, but we continued, in the hope something exciting or unpredictable would happen (it didn't). Its production values were solid enough and the acting was decent, I suppose, but overall I think it was massively overrated. The music was okay in places (the last episode was particularly strong) but in the main, it sounded like a phoned-in Alex Desplat score with a modern/minimal classical bent.
Fabulous series. The score is quite good in context. Not sure I would listen away from the show but it was excellent in the film/show. It felt like a film more than a tv series.

You are right about this. To me, it was really good in context, but not so much outside the show.

Im a late watcher of this series. So far ep3. I didnt clock who had done the music, but as episodes wore on i thought This screams Desplat and i truly thought it was him.
If Carlos can write as well as Alexandre, then he must be pretty good.
