The episode opens with a little exposition for newcomers to the series; through narration, Dream tells us who he is and introduces us to his realm, The Dreaming. They get the basics out the way early. However, it might have been a better move for the writers to spare us this info-dump in favor of letting the details come out naturally during the co...
For this episode, the show basically turns the Corinthian into an exposition machine, and I don’t know how to feel about it. Boyd Holbrook is great in the role, although I think he’s been let down by the writing. His appearance in this episode feels forced; he comes out of nowhere to explain to Roderick Burgess (and the audience) who Dream is and w...

Even though it’s expected by fans of the comic, Roderick Burgess’ death comes out of nowhere. He takes a blow to the head and is almost instantly pronounced dead. As a result, his son Alex is given the burden of watching over Dream. Interestingly, Alex never hates Dream; he’s more cautiously curious…although he also doesn’t let him out of his priso...
