Bending and effects are good, and costuming is impressive too, but... the casting is so bad that it destroyed the series. Gordon Cormier is the worst actor I have ever seen in my life. I'm not sure who watched his acting and thought, "Okay, let's not redo these scenes." Even kindergarteners act better. The majority of the main characters are talentless. And Gran Gran, who has teeth brighter than the future of this series, is... Well, they could at least use CGI to make them less white if nothing else... If they want this series to succeed, they really need to find better actors or provide proper acting training to the current cast. It's essential for the quality of the show and the enjoyment of the audience.

An emotional human story in which we follow the heroes in their pursuit of a better tomorrow. At the beginning, they sacrifice their freedom and privacy, but as they go deeper, they sacrifice their dignity, family, friends, and even their health... all while questioning whether it was worth the money and fame they could gain. In the end, they emerge unhappier and poorer than before, yet season after season, they return like gambling addicts to leave behind another part of themselves, further humiliate themselves, and sink a little deeper. Like Squid Game, but much more emotionally and intellectually profound. Highly recommended. It's unfortunate that many will not understand its depth.
