I personally dropped it, since it suffers from committee-approved writing: there must be random action scenes, love interests and personal stories of exceptionalism. If you don't mind the plot sometimes taking second place in favor of illogical standard Hollywood fare, it's well shot, with okay acting, and an overall nice aesthetic.
You've just described literally every piece of genre television made since the beginning of the medium.
Eh, I'd say that this one is fairly blatant about it. You can tick boxes without sacrificing plot coherence and world building.
Idunno, this one ticks those plot and worldbuilding boxes pretty hard for me. It's just a different sort of plot and the worldbuilding is necessarily shifting, both owing to the fact that the story spans a great deal of distance and time.
Fair enough! Might give it a change again eventually.
I agree with you somewhat, but I’ll just say in my opinion, it wasn’t as disruptive to my watching.
