I've been very impressed, on the whole. I'm still in awe that a big-budget Bene Gesserit show is being made at all, and I had very low expectations. I assumed it would be a cynical action show about sexy warrior ladies or whatever, but so far they've shown a competent understanding of why I love the sisterhood.

There's definitely fan-service: shoehorned references to the movies, accelerated timelines and drama, and constant nudity that doesn't lift the plot. But it's a complex story that is fundamentally about the intricacies of the early Bene Gesserit, and I'm having a great time.

It's not perfect and not for everyone, so it really depends on what you want from a Bene Gesserit show. My ideal show would never, ever be green lit, so I'm happy to accept this version.
