    its a good show, first four seasons are incredible, season 5 the writing and the politics simultaneously nosedive (yes it sadly becomes a capitalism propaganda show) but the actors still sell it. season 6 isnt bad but its so cringy to watch that i’ve been slogging through it for months lol

    its worth watching for sure. its very confused about ideology shit but thats fine, its more about the characters than the cold war itself
