Cypher

The actors deliver their lines like they're still in high school, overacting in every scene. The mother is a lying witch with her 8 yr old daughter, and has ZERO redeeming qualities.

The story has so many errors, holes, giant gaping plot issues, it's almost unwatchable.

When the writer couldn't figure out how to move the story along, they wrote these genuinely boring (transition) scenes where one actor divulges a private, over-emotional moment, with all the subtlety of an explosion. Those scenes are nothing but filler, and don't move the plot along, or reveal anything about the characters.

I love spy shows and action-driven dramas. This isn't that. This had a promising premise, particularly regarding the actual cypher, however it was such a small part of the first 3 episodes, it just never develops.

Boring, badly acted, poorly directed, edited, and just not interesting.

I seriously hated almost every minute of it.

The 2 FBI Agents acting suck, even if they did it for free. It still to high of a cost.

Story line started off good but completely fell apart. These are the most corrupt and inept FBI agents ever! The lead female agent meets a new guy during the investigation (online). Date 1 takes him home to her house....sleeps with him and then 3rd date takes him to the FBI SAFE HOUSE to drop something off before the head out to dinner???? Who does that??? Worst and most stupid cops ever!

The acting is so cringe, some of scenes are literally hard to watch. There are some major stupid aspects of the script too like an FBI agent casually dropping by a safe house on a date. The storyline has potential but the acting and the production is just awful.

As much as I do like the storyline of this series, I have a hard time overcoming the dull and unimaginative dialogue. It is slow to say the least. The acting is not top shelf either but suffices. I am forcing myself to watch just to see where the story goes.
