    I enjoyed it with a couple of caveats.

    • Gotta watch with original audio, eng subs. I immediately clocked that it had dubs before there was even onscreen dialogue, just from the initial voiceover. Something about their dubbing turned me off. I’ve also had other people that I recommended the show and weren’t into it until I had them turn off english dubs.
    • It loses some of the revolutionary edge that was in the first couple seasons once Netflix gets ahold of it.
    • You can’t take it too seriously. It’s just a fun heist, fuck the system type show. The later seasons are worthy of saying they jumped the shark, but I still found them to be fun action slop. I watched the behind the scenes shows and they’re aware of how over the top it is and they’re just having fun with it.

    It might not be for you, but I found it to be pretty fun slop and it even inspired some real life bank robberies, which I’m all for. hahaha
