The one thing that bothers me about this show: If this "conspiracy" is so
vast and powerful (as they seem to be), then why the hell don't they just
kill the guy?
Other than that, it is a pretty well-done show, given that it is on TV.
Very paranoid. Don't think it's too Pynchonian, though; there's absolutely
no humor in the show. Pynchon seems to find some humor in the conspiracy,
either in the organization itself or the world that allows it to live.

not the still photographs of finished character but the movie,
the soul in flux. -- Thomas Pynchon
