@Doug there are alot of complaints about it being very dark  

But apparently the weiz guy that filmedl, filmed it like that on purposes. He says it's not too dark, people just don't know how to tune their tvs

I thought the slaughter was never going to end and maybe run over into another episode. Phew! Glad it didn't.

Had to watch the whole episode with the lights off to see what was going on, all overly dark. Was thinking they exceeded their budget by so much that they had to hire Eskom to do the lighting.

Yip what an episode. So much death

All I want to say about episode 3 is that I don't think there will ever be anything like it again in a TV series! It took me about an hour to calm down!   WOW!

I don't want to give away any spoilers but also loved the first episode. Enjoying how (almost) all the still alive characters are gathering in the same place. 

I watched the  CU+ episode as it was not yet available on CU and found some of the night/dark scenes to be VERY dark. I battled to make out what was happening at times - especially the scene near the end. Anyone else experienced this or is it something on my side or possibly related to the CU+ quality? Will check the scene on my recording later today to compare.

More than one of my friends already complained about the number of adverts during the evening broadcast though and I'm not surprised! The CU episode was 52 minutes and the broadcast 1 hour 20 minutes - that is a staggering 28 minutes of adverts - more than 50% the duration of the episode!
