So cool!

I love this concept honestly and it was very entertaining. We started with yellow (6 weeks before heist). As another reviewer mentioned, you can't start with White or everything is obsolete. White was last for us and I think it's likely last for everyone.

There's a couple of super predictable twists going on. And there's also one episode that seems to have been written by a comedian because it was so funny - I think it was Pink (6 months after heist). If the whole show had been as funny as this episode I would have given it a 9.

I hate that they made one female lead super weak. The explosives specialist. She was a very unlikable character with absolutely zero development. Same with Stan the smuggler. Actually, now that I think of it, the only person who had any character development was Leo.

Super unrealistic as well because - I'm no expert but - i dont think anyone would run a heist of this caliber without having a good connection with their crew. There was so much tension and obvious problems with the crew before they started planning.

There was also no episode that explained how they were going to break in. Just the White episode where it shows it. And they literally don't talk during the entire heist until the end when they start giving up on each other. And Bob just randomly walks away while breaking into the last safe because he saw the feds were EXITING the building. Super random act from a guy who was really amped about getting the money...why would you go all that way and then leave?

And they kill off the only likable character in the end too for literally no reason.

And the whole point of the show was a daughter, abandoned by her criminal father in her childhood, teaching her father a lesson. And keeping the rich rich....yay?
