Dispatches From Elsewhere.

This was so good for 9 whole, long ass episodes, and then the last episode just shat all over every single thing that had happened previously and resolved nothing, because it had to be meta and a dumb allegory for writing a script while overcoming alcoholism and it didn't even make sense so it just meta-ed itself again to get out of having to tie up a single god damn story line.

Seriously though, the first episode is fantastic and beautiful and I do recommend watching it, but just don't go past that because you will get invested in the story and have all your hopes crushed as not one iota of it pays off.
