reception
“The line-up shouldn't have been cheap, the series creator is largely unknown, and at first glance the topic is not particularly suitable for the masses. With its interesting mix of genres and topics, the series could certainly attract some fans of HBO or AMC dramas. Provided they are willing to be patient until the initially confusing storylines come together - and ignore the superficialities that are a bit too obvious in the pilot. "
