As a fan of both Daisy May Cooper and Jack Farthing, I was really looking forward to this show. The premise seemed interesting and the trailer made it look promising. There are multiple issues with this show, it starts with many unanswered questions, especially the origin and current state of relationship between the main characters among others, one hopes that they will be answered by the end of the show and it'll all make sense, but that wasn't the case here. The questions only increase in number going forward. We get a sense of why things are the way they are, but never get concrete answers. This makes it quite a frustrating watch.

I don't think the makers of this show quite knew what it was supposed to be. I approached it as a dark comedy, but only laughed maybe three times in all of the episodes. It isn't a full on drama either. By episode 4, I was just done with it and only kept on watching in hopes that it gets better - it doesn't!

The only redeeming qualities are the acting and the original music. Skip this one.
