Season 1 Review:
Despite the finality with which episode 2 concludes—I really thought the series was over and wasn’t unhappy—episode 3 is actually the most engaging of the chapters, being about Thoreau’s life as a surveyor, explorer, advance man for Charles Darwin, unflinching abolitionist and ally and interlocutor of John Brown. .... Most remarkably, Jeff Goldblum, who as Thoreau abandons anything associated with standard Jeff Goldblum and creates a vocal character full of self-reflection, naïveté and awe.
