    4 episodes in, this show is for the type of person who can handle uncertainty. Characters are complex and will take time to fully flesh out. When the episode ends, you wish you had another to watch.

    This serie seems to be far too good to be successful, to earn great ratings. This story is so overwhelming, gives such a wide perspective on human existence in these confusing times. Each episode surprises the spectator in telling original and provocative stories, it’s a pity the great public seems not to be prepared for this and new insights . Hopefully this serie will prove her valuesThis serie seems to be far too good to be successful, to earn great ratings.

    Great new show - packs a lot of potential arcs into first episode to get us involved. The writing is great, the acting superb and the story lines have so many places to go. Finally a show that does not labor the point and becomes such a slow burn that you lose interest. I was immersed strangely in the first episode with elements of Donnie Darko intrigue and West Wing fast paced dialog.Great new show - packs a lot of potential arcs into first episode to get us involved.

    Here and Now is complex, with characters who are all thoroughly enmeshed in the plot. The characters are involving and distinctive: we want to know what happens to them. How entertaining would this series be without the supernatural element? Five episodes in, it is still hard to say. My wife and I are really enjoying it, especially the writing.

    Sadly, the first four episodes are--despite a very HBO combination of worldly themes and super-horny sex scenes--more of an irritant than an intoxicant.

    While Here and Now isn’t as engaging as “Six Feet Under,” it has an intriguing quality that invites you to snoop around.

    Unfortunately Here and Now takes great pains to fulfill its title as a drama, albeit a bad one with inadvertent overtones of assigning a magical otherness to the non-white characters in its cast, Ramon in particular. A bigger disappointment, though, is the fact that it’s a generally well-acted hour with a few characters worth following. ... Spending several episodes with it made me want to scream "Get out."
