Just asking, no offence meant.
Have you seen episode 4?

The dialogue was a bit boring in episode 2 I'll admit, but 3 was interesting and 4... The 4th episode started as then before becoming and then followed by .

(The trailer for the 4th episode was also an epic troll - truly you should never trust a trailer. But the actual episode was so.... mentally disturbing that it was hard to care).

Consider that I hardly ever use emoticons, but felt compelled to in describing episode 4.

I get the feeling that the point of the series is:

1: Deconstruct the "Tarzan" (innocent man raised in the wild) concept, thus the first couple episodes seem to play it straight before starting to hit you with the deconstruction.

2: Make dry, snarky, 4th wall breaking comments while providing some good fight scenes.
