I wish they'd done something different with the main premiss. Instead this show too, as so many others, and the entire MCU now, rely on the dumb theory, which is very likely to be untrue, and idea of the multiverse.
This is also much more drama than it is scify. Or at least it tries to be drama. The main actors pull it off, but enough of the side characters do not which make you roll your eyes. Another thing that bothers me is the abysmal sound design with bad irritating background music, horrible intro music, and each fight and run or even driving in a car lack professional sound design.
With those negatives out of the way, this is neither awful or bad. As long as the focus is on the main actors the show is even compelling and sometimes suspenseful. The show also take time setting things up, which I really like.
I guess they could take this show pretty much anywhere, which is the benefit of the multiverse - the multiverse is the lazy writers wet dream, can do anything with it. So perhaps I am too early to judge, but so far I am not too impressed and since the main premiss faulted I am giving this a reluctant 6/10. This is still better than most other TV shows nowadays, but that is more a testament on how bad entertainment has got rather than an endorsement of this show. This is good for what it is, and if you are a believer in the multiverse theory (seek help), then you might think this is a great show.
