It’s compelling. It’s highly amusing it’s rare I binge watch something and am at loss for words to describe it. I can’t imagine reading the story would detract from watching it. It’s not like you don’t know what happens as it is foreshadowed from the start. Give an episode a watch and you’ll either have to continue or it won’t appeal. Actually I’d get through second episode. After that, discard if you aren’t interested. I found it highly comedic.
