I made it through approximately 2 episodes. I tried, I really tried because of the dearth of good television but couldn't make it. I am really picky with television though so ymmv.
Semi-related rant:
The wokeness in modern television has gone off the rails. I tried latest season of Fargo and couldn't get through that either. Both shows go out of their way to show lead female characters as borderline superheroes and men, specifically white men, to be either idiots, evil, or a combination of both. I feel like I am being brainwashed with a lot of these shows.
Earlier seasons of Fargo (and the movie) had strong female leads that worked because they didn't push the realms of believability too far. The females were smart in a believable way the men weren't.
Completely unrelated to your question but I don't want to start a new post:
