    Really enjoyed it

    Did not expect much, but was surprised I liked it so much, good cliff hanger ending hope they have season 2.

    It's OK to like it but don't dismiss how messy it is

    This is a mess Scenes just end without doing anything to advance the plot forward There are too many characters who aren't developed at all and the editing is so bad that a YouTube could do a batter job It looked ugly and I believe it was intentional but instead of looking gritty it looks lifeless and without character and the acting ranged from good to really bad

    Nope, not worth it

    Almost completed a full episode, but this is not good. Acting is bad, the plot is boring. the production seems professional though.

    Jordan Peele Do Something With This!!

    Execution was poor. The concept is very good and different. I like the folk lore of the ancestors along with the crime drama. It just needs better writing and overall delivery of the production. Come on Jordan, take a look.

    Not fish nor bird

    It started nicely. But got soon very boring. It almost looks as if it has a sort of product placements inside. I cannot take it for serious. I would love to write any better.
