The FX series Class Of '09 smartly layers the past, present, and future in telling this story. Introducing viewers to only two-time frames in the first five minutes made everything that happened in these first two episodes easier to absorb. Kate Mara's performance as Poet is so good that you are (easily) pulled into the third time frame (Present 2023) without it feeling disruptive.
You could argue that this story could have been just as good without the time jump. But it feels more attractive told this way and complements the dystopian part of the story set in 2034.
The showrunners, writers, and actors did a great job showing the good in 2009 and the ugly in 2034 but offered only a glimpse of the bad that's about to happen with a great cliffhanger at the end of episode two. This direction made it thrilling and fun to watch.
Structuring a series like this is difficult and often loses focus with all the back and forth, but this new limited series from FX may be the exception. I look forward to seeing how this story plays out.

Story summarized on paper probably looks good, and if they have just keeped focus of the show on main core of the story it would be above average.
But unfortunately they figured that there could be two stories to tell. One about dangers of considering everyone a criminal and dangers of AI decisioning (at least something in those lines). The other story is about woman in danger, black people in danger and other woke stuff. I can't understand why take something that could be good and ruined it with wokenes. Didn't filmmakers learned until now that we don't want movies and shows to show political ideologies down our throats? I personally am fead up with wokeness and I'm just stop watching in the middle of the show if that's the case. And it was the case with this one.
