Being on HBO sets an unusually high bar for a TV series. Had this been on SCYFY or TBS I am sure it would have been better received. As it stands in comparison to shows like Veep, Silicon Valley and GOT, this series has proved to be a big disappointment. It is mildly entertaining, just not HBO level entertaining. The one awesome thing that did come from watching this series, is that in reading the reviews I was introduced to Inside No. 9; which if you haven't watched yet stop what you're doing and watch immediately. Smart, funny and creepy, Inside No 9 is thoroughly enjoyable and so much of what this show is trying to be.
