Well done with a touch of laziness...

Really liked this one. I stuck with it - even re-watching whole episodes - and barely had to fast forward through anything. Strong and talented cast. I have learned to tone my reviews and let others get into the details of why they loved that lamp that was turned on 4 minutes into episode 23 in the background...

Gripes:
- We watch FL eat too many times. It started to bug me since she likes to talk with her mouth full. In one scene - I had my hand up to read the subtitles while blocking her face while she was talking and eating. Ugh.
- Flashbacks are so badly done they are laughable. If the artist is thinking back to her love why and how does she have the ability to see him running when she wasn't even around? How does she know he ran from the parking lot to save her when she was busy drowning in the water? Lazy crew - lazy director/editor.
- The artist's mother. What a horrible woman. I would have let her get in trouble financially to the point of arrest or, court order. She never learned and LOVED taking from anybody and everyone.
- Dad's bad past - wasn't covered enough in detail. What happened that sent someone to jail? Why the multi-year grudge? Why was one person brought on just to die?

Overall - a winner. Loved the cast and the story/plot is strong. One of my favorites.
