Near the beginning of this very, very long show, the main character leaves her loft to go on a long trip. When she does, she leaves her front door wide open -- the camera lingers a little too long so we can see that not only does she not shut it, she doesn't look back. Tiny detail but it's indicative of the whole show. The people who put this together just didn't care about making it work. There are sloppy moments throughout, continuity errors that by themselves don't mean much, but when they pile up, they reveal a team that just didn't care. And it shows.
On top of that, the writing is just abysmal. Every possible cliche, every possible awkward conversation: the writers don't miss a one. On top of that, when the characters talk to each other, they actually are talking to the viewer; they're constantly explaining their pasts and their motivations, not as a real convo but as a way for the viewer to understand the beleaguered plot.
The acting isn't much either, although given the bad dialog the actors gave to deal with, perhaps no one could have pulled these lines off.
All in all, with so many good shows out there, this one is just a prolonged waste of time.
