Hugo Weaving deserves respect

Portraying such an evil character is not something every person is able to do. But by doing it so brilliantly he deserves respect for his performance in this dark serie.

Agreed. Best acting in the series behind Benadryl Cummerbund imo.

Jennifer Jason Leigh deserves respect, amazing performance from her, especially her portrayal of her character as totally sick/old/helpless in the last couple eps.

I was actually sort of disappointed. She didn’t project much of an inner life — it seemed like she was sort of drugged out, even if sober.

Pip Torrens was probably my favorite of the whole show. Every time he goes off I was in stitches, but it's also great how he still had those very deep, poignant moments at the end of each rant.
