4/10

I was excited to watch this, wanted to like it, but after 7th episode, I'm realizing that I'm wasting my time. It's boring, stretched. characters are boring too & nothing is happening even after watching 7th episode. And to be honest, I don't even care what gonna happen in next episodes, I'm quitting it & regret, that I wasted whole week for this weird boredom.

7/10

The first season feels a bit aimless and there isn't any strong central conflict, other than a mystery that isn't particularly strong either. 5/10.

The second season however is much better, with better central characters and an evolving mystery that has kept me gripped. I would give it 8/10.

You've reached the end.
