This show is not perfect by any means but (so far) it knows what it is and it has with its two female leads. They are the draw. And I also really like that the show has gone all in with Doak. Yes this has Blacklist written all over it but Blacklist was a fun show for the first couple of seasons and I know people HATED Liz but when the show revolved around the relationship between Red and Liz it was often at its best. Elena and Val are gold in this and I think the writers are at least smart enough to know keeping them in the same sphere is the smart thing to do and so far they aren't writing Val as an idiot so Elena can get away with some crazy big level thing that makes no sense anyway. I think the story itself is an interesting one. Elena is a gangster, who wants her family back, going up against Elon Musk level crime lords who own governments and the only person she can trust is Val who is honest enough to put her own husband in prison but smart enough to see the big picture when things go sideways.
If this gets renewed I am in for another season.
