If you watch it like it’s Showgirls or something it’s great. I had a blast.

I’d never hate-watched a show before–and tbh I had a blast. So awful that I tuned in every week just to see if they could keep it up (or, down in this case).

Yeah, it tried to hard to be edgy, failed, which only made it cringe. The main characters were the least interesting. Abel is not a good actor. Cinematography is pretty good though.
