Customer Reviews
Really good! No, seriously.
I started Season 1 here, and ended Season 2 on Stitcher. This was a fantastic story - Written well, acted wonderfully, crafted nicely. It was thought-provoking and fresh. My only regret is that I found it years after it came out. We need more quality, diverse stories like this - Seriously!
Amazing!!
