Pretty poor acting by all involved with the exception of one, maybe two of the actors. Not really any likable characters. Cool to attempt murder and be involved in a shooting only to be offered a home cooked meal at the cops house. Only 1 episode, which was towards the end, was decent and kept my attention. Don't know why I gave it 4 stars. May have to go lower that. One season was enough.

I'm glad I kept watching even after many bad reviews. It was so great to see something different, weird, for once.

[tv+] An incomprehensible way to waste a good novel, beginning by transferring the story of the seventies to post-9/11 New York for no apparent reason. At first it seems like the right decision to portray a city that lives in constant trauma but, like many other elements and characters in the series, the description of this relevant moment is forgotten within a confusing and unbalanced plot that stops at irrelevant aspects, like it wanted to be a new version of "Gossip girl". There are poorly developed plots and a constant feeling of wasted time. [spoiler]But above all, the effort to end everything with unlikely and sappy happy endings is insulting.[/spoiler]

Mindless drivel. Gave it 45 minutes and shut it off before the urge to jump off a bridge took over. 1/10
