Amazing episode and superb acting from John Turturro. I audibly gasped a couple times, easily the best new TV I have seen in a while.

What I liked most about it was it knew why we were watching this particular instance and knew why it was ending.
spoiler
The reason were seeing this iteration of the time loop is because it's the iteration that has deviated from the previous hundreds or thousands time loops. That's where the series starts. It knows why we want to see this loop, but not the other loops or even the first loop. The show ends because the loop finally gets closed. They could have easily dragged it on for more seasons, but the writers knew they had reached a perfect ending.Really shows what having some conviction in your own storytelling can do. Too many shows don't have confidence in what they're doing and end up spiraling into nonsense.
