I am not an easily offended person, nor am i religious in any way, but as a human being this show disgusts me. They portray death and murder as if it is romantic and acceptable, and with such hubris they then attempt to get you to care for those who do so. I'm sorry writers, but you cannot show characters stabbing, shooting, axing, and burning alive innocent people, and then get me to care about their bi-sexual melodrama. It is shows like this that desensitize and rationalize acts like murder, and if fallen on to the wrong impressionable audience can do harm. We wonder why there are so many violent acts occurring in this country, senseless and shameful, just like this show. I do not find it clever or suspenseful, just a sad attempt to attain shock value and be "edgy" enough to get a second season. We need peace, love and compassion for one and other, not mindless killing.
