Direction and actors were fine. The series gimmick was also interesting: in each episode, you go through an entire week over and over, but from a different person's perspective.

But I didnt like the plot and the characters. So I guess, if you like the cliche story "I did drugs and I dont remember what I did last night but a murder happened" then go for it. It's slow, the character arcs are uninteresting and it lacks energy. It's way too focused on drugs, as everyone uses, and everyone is passive or makes stupid choices. And everyone is broken. It's a miseryfest.

The do try to make each character's arc interesting, but to me everything is just boring. It's like there's nothing but drugs, sex and corruption everywhere. I didn't like any of the characters or their motivations or their progression.

Also, the 1st episode ends in a fake cliffhanger. That was a complete troll.

Loved it - very gripping. Great ending too! A good dark and sensual mystery thriller.

First episode is pretty bad. By 4th episode it finds its rhythm and is a quite interesting satisfying small town police mystery.

Btw- the story is nothing like the trailer suggests.

Loved it. You have to feel your way in AFTER the first 2 episodes it settles into a mystical, strange, hippie, slightly surreal vibe that drew me in slowly. Then it was addictive, and I had to know what happened. Thought vistas were beautiful thanks to great cinematography, great directing and acting. You could feel place.

I hated the first episode. It seemed stupid and pretentious and none of the characters were likeable (giving them all ridiculous names didn't help). I gave the se.cond episode a chance and it got better. By the fifth I was hooked. It does take a while to find its stride but once it does is pretty gripping viewing. The acting was pretty good overall (Keiynan Lonsdale was the standout) and it looked beautiful. The ending was unexpected but not in a ridiculous way and was quite poignant. If you can stick past the first episode or two you'll be pleased you gave the show a chance.
