Its the acting that carries the show
While the script was ok and the plot was somewhat overpacked, the acting was phenomenal from the two leads and main supporting characters. The plot moved forward, but it did not develop enough especially towards the end. There were just one or two many plot/story lines. The chemistry is awesome and again, the acting is really heartfelt and the best I've seen out of these main leads. The fighting scenes were good but the effects/production not so much. I still enjoyed it and looked forward to each next episode. If you like political and historical dramas but with romance and some comedic elements, this would be perfect. It was heavy without being overbearingly dark and had plenty of moments that make you smile and even cry.Was this review helpful to you?
Very much silver linings playbook
If you liked It's ok to not be ok and/or silver linings playbook, you'd love this. The acting is amazing and you will enjoy the main characters. It's the right balance of funny, while still touching on the very sensitive topics of mental health and trauma. I thought it was very well navigated. The plot is consistent, easy to follow with several plot lines contributing to the main story. It didn't feel rushed but got through a lot in only 13 30 minute episodes. overall, it was a very good show and I would definitely watch it againWas this review helpful to you?
