OK - yes - this is a terrible series. Inaccurate and fodder for the fire that burns in all who see a government conspiracy behind every bush. So - if that is your thing - then definitely watch this series - it will work hard to confirm that your ethos is indeed valid.

If you are a relatively normal person who watches network news and reads occasionally and does not rely on Reddit for your "secret" news than you will not have an enjoyable time.

Huge gaps of logic abound and you might get dizzy from shaking your head so often. On the positive side - the acting and writing is top notch - the flow and pacing is good - this is an idea that could have been so much more than it turned out to be.

So a bunch of 20-somethings once again play teenagers and they decide to rip off the Breakfast Club. Sure what could go wrong with such an inspired genesis.

This thing is execrable.

Cringeworthy acting - paper thin characters - two adult leads phoning it in. Oh wait a minute they are actually all adults just about three-quarters of them are playing kids.

And the sad part is - someone with a modest amount of sensitivity and talent could probably update the Breakfast Club - just not this ensemble

I have no idea who wrote it - green lit then decided to actually make it - but let me save you a wasted couple of hours - SKIP IT.

The leads are great - Lauren is especially dazzling. The story is cute and there is real chemistry all around. As usual the crisis is a bit manufactured but if you signed up for the premise then just enjoy the ride.

Other reviewers are too harsh - if you like the genre then you will enjoy this little trip into it.

The story and direction are OK and you don't feel anything intrudes into a basic story.
