It’s ok, I don’t understand why they focussed so much on trying to make this a mature drama when the show stars Frank Grillo and Nick Jonas. They pull it off just fine, but I don’t think it plays to its potential strengths, because I think it’d be much more memorable if it focussed on the physicality instead. The drama we have here is fine: acting is ok, writing is ok, filmmaking is fine. It never drops the ball, nor is it ever outstanding. They often play it safe, and in many ways the music perfectly encapsulates what the show is: very plain, straightforward garage- and blues rock. Sometimes you're in the mood for that, but I won't rush out to recommend it to anyone either. It does have a tendency to stretch its own story a little thin; for example there’s no reason for season two to be 20 episodes long. Does this show deserve a little more love and attention? Probably. Am I surprised it got lost in the shuffle with the huge amount of high quality television that we got in the 2010s? No.
