Warning: Spoilers
As other reviewers have said, this is a total waste of 6 hours of your life. It's set up as a quirky, small town mystery/sci fi American Netflix sort of series full of odd characters but it doesn't quite live up to this.

None of the characters are particularly interesting or likeable so you don't care what happens to them.

The series isn't sure what it wants to be, a comedy? Sci fi? Murder mystery?

It's not funny enough to be a comedy and certainly isn't thrilling or complex enough to be murder mystery or sci fi.

By the end of 6 episodes you still don't really have a clue as to what's actually going on. There's too many stories which don't actually come together to make any sort of coherent outcome.

There's a guy wrongly imprisoned for murder, there's there's some weird drug that makes people hallucinate, there's a random guy over seeing a fracking outfit, people wondering into woods and 'seeing' things, and then a side story for the main character where her ex turns up. I mean why? None of it is related and none of the stories reach any conclusion.

I was disappointed with this. By the end I was left confused and dissatisfied as there's too many loose ends that aren't tied up, not enough explanation for how things turned out. Too many unanswered questions. Apparently there have been hints at a second series. I won't be watching.
