Had it on DVR and watched it this morning. FX usually has some good stuff.
I've never seen Nip/Tuck, but understand the creator of that show is behind it.
I liked the tone... profoundly weird and left some questions when it was over.
Some freaky stuff happened in that hour... still not sure if a couple characters
are actually alive or not.

I did not care for it. Will not be watching it again. Without giving spoilers, I think it was trying too hard to be edgy, different, sexy, and weird, and it didn't succeed for me. It was like a fancy dessert that had a lot of good ingredients, but it just didn't taste good.

I agree with rgG that it was maybe "trying too hard to be edgy, different, sexy, and weird," but I'm sick of being bored by clunky, big budget over-hyped series with pretensions of grandeur, of being transcendent TV (eg Boardwalk Empire). Compared with that, I'd rather have edgy, different, sexy, and weird. I must admit that the down and dirty sometimes has an allure for me that escapes the high and mighty. YMMV, of course.
