Firstly, I don't believe people should give such high reviews when they haven't seen the full series.
Secondly, I wish people would give realistic reviews....so many 10 out of 10s, wow, is this really the best show some people have seen, even without the ending there are so many better out there.
As for the series, it is slow to start off and the jumping from past to present is a little confusing. The acting is reasonable, but the story is just one dimensional and pretends to be more than it is. I kept watching expecting a twist or something less predictable for a finish, but this didn't happen! Very flat, perhaps worth watching for some, but not for me!
