The story doesn't run well, it's like they're repeating the same scenes over and over. We get it they're connected and can feel each other at times. Now move on to more from the story.

Wow, really? Interesting you made that point because this is the first show in a long while where i've not really been concentrating on the dialogue and writing, but more on the interactions between the characters. It's impressive that they all have such great chemistry, and i suppose its the intrigue for me that makes me want to continue with the show.
I struggled at first to get past the first 5mins of Episode 1 largely because i had seen the lacklustre reviews, and i really didn't want to invest time in anything i will end up hating [see: Aquarius] but i'm glad i persevered. I will say that, it may achieve overarching success as HoC or OITNB but Sense8 is a pivotal show, an important show because it opens up dialogue into LGBTQ characters; it establishes a need for better representation.
It's really a show you just have to go with the flow with; i mean some of these scenes are literally pioneering, they've never been attempted before. You really cannot critique it because then you're just spoiling it for yourself. So for anyone who wants to watch it, just suspend belief.
Sorry, switch "jewel thief guy" to "cop". That's who I meant
