a good start gets you hooked and wanting to know more

introduces the characters well and their relationships already gives the viewer suspicions on who did what

Honestly an incredibly solid first episode…

Honestly an incredibly solid first episode but this really needs some heavy trigger warnings? Especially as a first episode and especially because it seems to end up on a lot of rec lists, but within the first episode you've got like allusions to miscarriage, nonconsensual drug use, death of a pregnant woman, suicide, medical forensics, dubious consent kissing, blackout drinking, etc. Like again, it's good! I like the format of the show, and the chemistry between the leads is undeniable, but it's a bit weird to see it just rec'd without any sort of warning.

A really good start!

I was impressed by the gloomy mood that seems to reign in the beautiful town. The mystery brewing, making you doubt and suspecting everyone. The acting was on point, the actors are really great and experienced, and I could feel their mood changes.And ofc Max and Tul's chemistry is off the charts, as always. The cinematography is remarkable. I could appreciate the director's work.As a mystery and crime series lover, this series delivered what I was expecting.

Sketch

Ok, so this first episode was interesting to say the least.There are so many sketchy things going on tho, and I legit don't trust anyone... Everyone is acting suspiciously and I'm just confuzzled.Also, that journalist can go choke on a cactus.
