Not bad, good production values and pretty well thought out. The main drawback, was that if I allowed my cynical side to consider it at all, I began to see problems, sadly mostly relating to the character types - and as it's character driven, that's not a good thing.
If I want to continue watching it I'll have to restain my cynical tendencies - a tall order.

perhaps you should write a strong letter to points of view and get it all out, then you can enjoy the series? aparently it gets better as the series goes on

I watched it on Sci-Fi, where it finished a couple of weeks ago. I won't spoil it, only say it gets better. What seem to be daft coincidences make sense as the plot proceeds.

I'm not worried about coincidences, rather the stereotypical characters.

I suggest you watch it and spot the types. If you think I'm going to post a long analysis of the character types and situations, then you're mistaken.

I might have something more important to do, like trimming my nose hair, or finding new and painful ways of preparing fish for the table.
