Visually stunning UNTIL
the race/gender swap begins.
Dream is pretty much spot-on. Death turns black, which mostly destroys a visually-conceived character. Lucifer turns female and ugly. Worst offender is Lucien, turning both female and black, and thus proving there's a war on gingers. All this before the end of episode 2, if memory serves.
Couldn't muster the patience to watch until the Corinthian appeared, I just looked up the visuals on the Interwebs. Mildly disappointing, but this one would have been a struggle to make work anyway.
Also, everybody's been bitten by the gay fly. It does break the flow of the show at some (early) point.
Hey well, there's always the comics.
BTW, Sandman's high concept and many key character are very reminiscent of Brit author Tanith Lee's Tales From the Flat Earth, although Gaiman never acknowledged any influence. According to recent news, he does seem to be a most repugnant person anyway.

Brilliant show.
Legally realistic only insofar as StarGate is a documentary on space travel, but fun.
The central character (Spader's) expresses classical JFK-era Democrat views, but the show does strive for a balanced perspective, with Shatner's Republican caricature often being ridicule, but as often being right.
Of note, the show pictures a profound relationship between two men, without a hint of homosexuality.

Throwback to the 80s
Creature feature as expected. Not a great movie, but hey, Cage fight.
Everybody is on the stupid spectrum so that the scenario can proceed, so, no preaching.
