I'll be honest, when I first saw the promos for the show I couldn't help but think "How insensitive" or that it looked vaguely cheesy. I happened to catch the first episode late one night and I was so surprised. It was so good. What I like most about the show is how well it incorporates side characters and subplots. The situations that happen outside of April's(the main character)scope are actually intriguing and sometimes emotional. I actually care about what is going on around her and don't find the subplots tedious or boring. Also,the show does a great job at including cliff hangers while also going back to tie up some loose ends in a way that doesn't make anything feel random or left out. It gets me excited to see what will happen next but without feeling annoyed that nothing gets resolved. Overall the plot is very multifaceted, the characters are interesting, and I find myself looking forward to the next episode. I really enjoy it and hope it doesn't get canceled!
