The biggest problems with this show are two major thingss:
1. They have "Jen" from "IT crowd". She basically acts the same, talks the same and is the same person.
It turns into comedy when she gets sad, screams or frustrated. And her weird whispering / mumbling voice of speaking is a mix of annoyance and funny.
Every time she is on set I think of "Jen". This woman is made for pure comedy and not a serious drama like this.
2. There are waaayyyy to many characters in this show! Many that have different storylines that goes nowhere.
Some just get cut abrupt and it just it just felt pointless.
Like an example of a man's wife who fell in love / had sex with a synth. There is an episode where her synth went crazy, and he hits him on the head and we never see her again in the show.
In the swedish show this was a key and major plot and they dwelled very deep into this and it was very interesting and entertaining.
But this show just keeps adding new characters and new storylines that again gets cut abrupt; either they die or the show just stops focus on them.
So it all feels pointless and starts to get boring. It's like they just repeat the formula and get nowhere.
Also season 2 is extremely boring where very little happens.
And due to all these characters and storylines the show progresses very slow.
Acting is okay. Some good actors and some very bad. Like the family's young son is a terrible actor. He just keeps smiling weirdly and doesn't have a clue about anything almost.
