5 stars for the film version, 3 for the cynical old man and his playmate and Zero stars for Amazon !!! What are you but a haughty people. Just now watched episode 8 as prime customer and suddenly the payment request! Anfixen and cash in! Great business model! That brings inevitably reviews that do the wrong series. For series: I like the cynical old man did not - but he is consistent in his development and suits the dramaturgical concept. His little companion with her tried schoolgirl sex appeal annoying at times, but they seem deliberately designed into it. Along with the great (for a series) pictorial representation and the advanced knitting technology, there is a round overall picture, which until Episode 9 Four star is worth it to me. Definitely worth seeing! Only Amazon has earned this zero stars - but that has no place in the rating of the series and was only mentioned.
