Looks like a lot of the reviews are left early on in the series, and I tend to agree, it's stylishly noir and holds your (my) interest.
Until it doesn't. It starts to get tedious as the writing stumbles to the finish line. To say the beginning of the series is great is spot on. To include the middle episodes start to show the ideas and kitsch is starting to get old would also be spot on.
The final act (last two episodes) the wheels fell off, would also be spot on. People think they are helpful jumping on with reviews after the first two episodes seriously isn't helpful, so yes, after the finale---would love for people to come back, because to discuss it involved spoilers---but it pulls a major "Shyamalan" which I have zero patience or need for. It basically insults the viewers intellect to basically turn this from a neo noir PI premise that was working and seemed fresh in its retrograde, but to flip the switch into something so psedo-edgy was comically terrible and the first 6 episodes are basically a waste of everyones time invested: because convoluted science fiction "enters the chat"
Hard to recommend because of the lame stunt.
