Do not waste your time on this rubbisch


I finished the series last night and it was NOT a fun ride. The writing in this show is just terrible. The characters make are two dimensional and whenever it matters, their actions make absolutely no sense. The characters' decision-making arises out of the plot's need for some twists and turns rather than logic.

Skip this and rather watch wet paint dry on a wall.

Well, I'm only 2 eps in and so far it's not nearly as bad as you make out.
It's not top tier even though it's on Youtube Premium.. but it's better than nearly everything on network tv and I won't be paying to watch anyway...
The characters aren't particularly likable, at this point, or charismatic and I'm not sure why they had to kill off the more congenial attractive white guy and keep the whinny scrawny one...but that's the way it goes.
I'm giving it a shot. It's not The Expanse but it is interesting enough to continue on.
