Did anyone watch this new series that started last night on HBO? It is based on a trilogy of books by Philip Pullman. I found it intriguing and different. Each character is accompanied by a daemon which is an animal that represents the human's soul. James McAvoy and Ruth Wilson have prominent roles.

Yes, I ran across this last night while scrolling. It caught and held my attention all the way through. Which is rare.  I may decide to continue. The premise with the animals is very interesting.

I have so much I DVR and watch on Monday night, I'm not sure I want to take on another show. I might take a look at it over the weekend.

@chessylady  Thanks for bringing this to my attention.  Just watched first episode - this is not my usual kind of thing to watch but I love McAvoy and enjoyed it.   Will continue to watch.

I just now am watching the first episode.  I watched the second one first because of a trailer before or after "Catherine the Great."  The second one caught my attention. So, I must go back and figure out the weird stuff with those well behaved children..........very strange. 

I grew fond of Ruth Wilson from a PBS series.

Anyone still watching this?  I, surprisingly enough, am really enjoying it this is not my normal ‘thing’.

 Just watched last episode and love the introduction of the Bear!  Great fun.
