My gut reaction is this would work better as a straight faced series rather than a comedy. The trailer doesn't really do it for me, probably gonna end up being another Netflix one off series that no-one even remembers in 6 months.

On episode 4 and enjoying it, it's a bit silly, but fun.

The text conversion in episode 4 is ridiculous though. She's on an iPhone, he's on a T9 feature phone and she can apparently see a ... typing indicator.

Honestly, who approved this?? Totally ruins the immersion!!

Just finished it and it got better as it went on, really enjoyed the last few episodes, some great fight scenes too.

Ha ha, yeah, I thought this too...

some great fight scenes too.

Yeah, I'm not sure why but I liked Blood Boots fighting the best... until he didn't fight anymore

Only on ep 5, but really enjoying it.

Netflix read this thread and noticed that you all enjoyed it, so decided to cancel it.

 

[ElliorR]

Yes the ********. One of the best shows in years and cancelled.
