If the rest of the show is anything like the first episode, save yourself the agony
I had high expectations for this show, as I have truly enjoyed the previous works of both the main actor and the actress. Now, I am also openminded enough to accept the fact that some characters in some shows do really stupid things, just because...
Now, in the middle of episode 1, a kidnapper with a speech impediment (which does not sound authentic and is just annoying) gets in the car of his victim (the main actress). While she's driving, with him sitting in the back seat, he tries to strangle her... okay... then, he goes on about how he like "that look" or something. He then go on this long tirade and tell her, for no apparent reason, about how his phone has VPN installed and that no one can trace his call for 10 min... I don't know if this is some kind of misdirection or even a dream sequence that will be explained later in the show. Whatever the case maybe, if you throw away any semblance of logic in the first episode, it is highly likely that logic will be easily ignored in future episodes. Despite my best effort, I couldn't make it all the way through the first episode...
Interesting concept. Very good acting. If you value logic in storytelling, then save yourself the trouble.
