First of all, Oldman is one of my favorites. The cast is phenomenal. It's competent and well done as a production.
However, the writing and outrageous premise of this show, at least in this episode, is beyond caricature and borders on parody. It's sophomoric, blinkered, and, well, insane. It is the kind of wearisome fare the modern entertainment industry specializes in.
It reveals how out of touch the writers and creators are.
It is embarrassingly threadbare at this point. I'm now just waiting for all of the other "boxes" to be ticked as this series progresses.
The rating for this series is very high and the cast is too good for me to give up after one episode. I'm just surprised and disappointed to see how quickly this jumped the shark into a farce in episode one.
