This show's pilot is full of pointless scenes that drag on for too long and add nothing. There is no depth, no atmosphere - just someone slowly getting into a car, walking down the street, opening a door, as you watch them... do things.
Pseudo-classical music plays in those empty moments, which fail to evoke the emotion or contemplation the writers are so eagerly going for.
The show feels like an alien experiment at writing a human TV show.
It goes through the motions of engaging the viewer emotionally, without understanding how emotion works. Its characters have the depth of those from a children's book.
This show reminds me of the movie "Magnolia", exposure to which must violate Geneva conventions.
It's always tough to say this about a body of work of many writers, actors, cameramen... but these leftovers belong in the trash.
And the blame lies really on the writers and writers alone.
