This is like a writers brainstorm gone straight into production.
There are lots of great "what if" ideas here, and each of them could have made for a really great show, if only someone had turned them into a cohesive story.
Yet somehow none of them ever go anywhere and then the headless chicken of a script moves on to the next.
It tries to be all genres at once, and never gets beyond mediocre at any.
It stuffs in massive scenes with enormous effort and loads of extras. Only to fizzle out with no contribution to the story.
It makes massively absurd jokes, but while many of them rival Monty Python in absurdity, but that's where the parallel ends, because they're not innovative, not smart and - not funny.
It was intriguing as a trailer, but after 4 episodes of boredom and disappointment I'm not going to waste more time on this.
