This is the standard constant angst supported by loud music conveying tension. The plots are transparent and twisted to make the full 24 episodes. The main message is that people are stupid, vacillate between bold and fearful, keep changing their mind at stupid points, continually look unprofessional and unintelligent, can't work well together, etc etc etc...The sideplots features characters that won't go away in spite of their irrelevance and that they clearly are just wasting plot space. Writing is often formulaic. Music even worse...attempting to create tension to make up for the lack of plot direction. Unrealistic to the point of not being believable in many places. Plot events that could be significant disappear almost immediately after they happen. MIght have been new when it came out. Now only lame.
