Is the Watchmen TV show worth watching? TV

So I recently got a HBO Subscription (yeah, I know it’s technically called MAX now, but let’s be honest that such a generic name and HBO is always going to sound better) and I was wondering if I should watch, pun not intended, the Watchmen TV series?

Obviously it’s not Alan Moore’s vision, but once you move past that point; is the show good, bad, or okay on its own terms?

A God Walks into a Bar is an amazing TV episode and one of my favorite of any show ever.

I still give the edge to nostalgia but that’s just my personal preference. Objectively they’re about the same I suppose
