Being a fan of Six Feet Under and American Beauty who were both created by Alan Ball (also known for True Blood), I decided to give the man's latest show a try. Now, that show was canceled by HBO after just 1 season, which made me kinda assume it wasn't gonna be great, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It has the Ball-style, very character-centric approach that I loved from SFU, and was setting up complex characters and issues, which kept making me think that if they were not cancelled it could have led to very interesting arcs. It does feel a bit bittersweet as it ends pretty abruptly and with more questions than answers, which makes it feel pretty incomplete, but I'd style recommend it for fans of the genre. I'll give it 7/10.

I’ve watched the entire first season and I still don’t have a clue about what this show is supposed to be about. Not a single one. But I like it anyway and I hope it gets renewed!
