So I watched both episodes, they weren't terrible, but they weren't good either.
Episode 1 was mainly on the low tier of meh, the first ten minutes are nothing special but after Adam took the spotlight my enjoyment plummeted. He's just obnoxious and Alex's performance isn't good enough to lift his character up, although he damn well tries so I can't fault him too bad. As expected the voices are big downgrades, Vaggie's VA legitimately sounded sick during recording or just bored out of her damn mind, Keith David as Husk gives a good standalone performance, but the dude was massively miscast or given awful voice direction. Alastor actually had his radio effect for the most part, wasn't as prominent as the pilot's but still usually front and center, so they didn't scrap it.
Surprisingly episode 2 was pretty alright for the most part, the pacing was indeed terrible, but the Alastor vs Vox song was good enough to do some heavy lifting for the episode and Alex as Pentious was probably one of the best of the recasts and gives a performance that shows he at least gives a shit and isn't here for a paycheck, it also helps that Viv couldn't get Stamper back even if she wanted to.
I still think the series is going to get worse as it moves forward, especially because the Eve, Lilith, and Roo leak is now 100% confirmed, but it's not quite as bad out of the gate as I expected.
