The high rating is cause I was so hooked the whole time, but I wish there’d been more depth. There are things I thought they’d come back to that we’d find out more about or that there’d be more under the surface but it didn’t, I think I was waiting for a more explosive ending? Still a great concept and kept me really engaged though.
