went along for the rollercoaster ride but instead found out the rollercoaster has no slopes
I'm a huge fan of the light on series and love watching crime/thriller shows that can wrap everything up within 16 episodes as I love bingeing them all in one sitting, however, this one truly fell flat.
Although, the plot started out strong, with the showing of the past and connecting it to the present and introducing the characters, it kind of just played out. The killer surfaced in the last few episodes, finally met up with the traumatized "daughter" and then got caught by the regretful cop and the revengeful young boy. It seemed like everything just played out like it should have in the face of trying to solve a cold case. If any of you have watched criminal minds or CSI, basically any type of american crime show, this exact plot with all the different characters can be summed up in a 40-42 min episode. Just with less background info and development of the characters.
I'm mainly just focusing on the plot line and how the story was developed, as other parts of the show, like the acting and music, were indeed good. Overall, not a bad show!! (but basic)
