As for Chris Pratt, Hollywood actor, and star of the series, I like personally like him, but as much as he seems to enjoy playing these gung ho military types, maybe he oughtta give up pretend-time and just sign up for the armed forces already. He certainly has the training by now.

We watched the first 5 on Friday night and the final 5 on Saturday, and give it a big thumbs up. That's good news for the show, as while I'm a longtime comic reader (and read this series while it was being published), my wife has never read the comics at all, and I think she liked it even more than I did.

It has not yet been renewed for Season 2, but the producers say they're working on the next scripts anyway. If it is a success, this show could easily run 5 more years using the source material with the story taken to an actual conclusion in terms of the tale of this particular aspect of the Sandman. They've already done a great job of planting the seeds for several of the upcoming seasons, including the final one, if they are all indeed to be greenlit.

The 7 siblings are indeed Endless, but there have been different versions of some, if not all of them, throughout history, and the entirety of the 6+ years long Sandman comic series was basically the story of this version of the Sandman becoming the next version of the Sandman.
I'm not overly familiar with the source material, have just heard about it through passing, but is the version we're seeing the first version of the Sandman?

Like I said before, I've really enjoyed it as the story has been well crafted. The bout between he & Lucifer was fun to see play out.

Episode 5 with the diner was really good as well since we were able to see what the Ruby can truly do.
