I really wanted to love this show...
From the first 5 episodes of this show I was HOOKED! The acting was great, there was a mystery element, and also crime. I was very invested in the characters and their relationships, and wanted to see how they progressed. The villains of this show were also great. Like I genuinely hated them. Not to mention that the cinematography is great. The show is just really visually pleasing and has a great vibe.
Then all of my interest started to turn into confusion at episode 6. The whole what-if 4 minutes thing started to kick in and I was really confused. When I figured out what was going on I was like "okay, I think I get it," but then each episode just got more confusing. They got you hooked in with the first 5 episodes just to reveal that none of that actually happened, and that the reality is much more disappointing. Like the whole 4 minutes idea was interesting, but I don't think it was executed very well.
Maybe this is a show that'll hit different on the second watch, but the first watch just left me kind of confused and disappointed. I'll probably rewatch this at some point because I do like the actors and the overall vibe, and want to give it a second chance.
