When starting to watch the show, I had major concerns for the actor who played Rudy. I thought that he was struggling to convey the ambitions/motivations for his character. It took untill past the second episode for me to believe he could convey emotional depth and consistency with his character. I believe the first episode of the series was a genuine pilot epsiode and the actor for Rudy was still trying to get in his skin. I think he eventually conveyed Rudy's past trauma and ambitions well as the series went on. An overall highlight from the show was the chemistry between Rudy, Jocelyn and Deck. Their characters were a good mix of personalities. Jocelyn was played extremely well and was a stand out performance for me. The dialogue writing was good. The overarching storyline (dots case) progressed nicely throughout almost every episode with minimal sub-plots. However one sub plot that was unnecessary was passing the bar exam/ having flashbacks during the exam. Overall, I enjoyed the series as a whole highlighted by incredible chemistry and performances from the extended cast. Followed by an enjoyable overarching storyline. I suspect some negative reviews were from people who didnt make it past the first couple episodes and based their review off that. If you enjoyed Goliath, this show is very similar to that, but with with main character more similar to Mike Ross from Suits.
