Had its Moments, But Too Much Tell and Not Enough Show

This series had potential, and it does have some great moments, but overall it’s far too much tell and far too little show. Too much of the show is explained by what the characters say as opposed to what the characters do, and because of that, I am never really convinced of the things I need to be in order for the show to have real stakes and be satisfying. It’s said that one should show and not tell, and this show too often forgets that. The first half is also glacially paced, to the point that I wanted to put my head through a wall at times. But even that’s a bit uneven until the last quarter.

I will give that the show is well acted and that the OST is fabulous. Those things really help to punch up something that I might otherwise have dropped.
