Yeah, one of my co-workers said he watched the first episode, and fell asleep partway through !
Of course, if this is typical of people's responses to it, then Amazon will be very disappointed. Let's not forget that they dropped $465 million on this - so it really had to be more than 'adequate': it had to be stunning. And based on the feedback I've heard so far (both here and elsewhere), it looks like it's fallen well short of that mark.
But still better than Lord of the Rigs, right?
