Watched first episode, does it get better?

Yeah
But the whole thing is it’s one take
That’s rare as hens teeth
They just don’t make drama or anything like that

3rd episode of Adolescence is up there with anything ever made.

What is the point of one take, or is it just the equivalent of a one handed wheelie?
It's a gimmick. It's just one continuous scene presented as a single take, but really it's just spliced together to make it look like that.
If you didn't like the first episode you probably won't enjoy the rest. Ep 1 & 3 were the best. Show was pretty good imo
The continuous shot worked for the atmosphere in ep 1 & 3 but It felt like it held it back in the other two episodes. I see it's the same director as Boiling Point, a single take shot movie, i guess that's his thing?
There's a single take movie called Victoria from 2013 that is worth a watch

I believe Utøya:July 22 is actually a genuine, one-take film? It was harrowing.

This is all one take
They rehearsed for weeks
You need to watch it to see how complex it is
The video above shows a brilliant scene and how they did it
IMO a they have just changed the game on how things are filmed now
And Stephen Graham is a fudging legend
I’d love to see him in something happy

Watching it tonight and yes, a huge Graham fan myself!
Well, all done.
Agree with your overview. I found the final episode a bit of a drag compared to the rest. 1 and 3 were great.

The final episode for me was the one
It showed the impact of what the son had done

Amazing that every episode is one take
I read that one of them they did in 2 takes or something
Bedfordspurs
Joe Kinnear
They do multiple takes
But each episode is one singular one
They tried to do 2 a day

Looks expensive
Very very weird
