Potential that fell down like a deck of cards

Let me first highlight that this is one guy's opinion. Opinion, in bold and underlined font.


This series had incredible potential. It had an interesting plot and a decent intro to the series. But it did not take long after for everything to fall apart. Now if this series leaned more into the rom-com category, with an addition of action, things might've changed. However that doesn't seem to be the case.

The acting is just downright terrible. Part of the reason was the cheesy, one-dimensional script and characters. The other part, though, is obviously the acting itself. A lot of the actors had the same dead-pan look throughout the entire series. A lot of the actors went over the top and overacted the scenes. A lot of the actors could not properly express emotions.

The characters were expected. As in, they were not fundamentally unique, just the usual stereotypical cast. Very boring, bland, and often hard to watch. You know what will happen next, and it is not the good kind. There wasn't a single character that struck me as "groundbreaking", and while it is OK to have a character not be unique or stand out amongst the rest, my problem lies with how every single one in this series didn't jump out to me.

The music was just downright terrible. It was either unfitting or distracting. Or both.

I lost count at how many times they added in a slow-mo effect, but it was annoyingly a lot.

This series just wasn't at all appealing to me. It had a cool idea that ran through the dirt.
