I adore Richard Armitage's acting. This series popped up on Netflix and I started it right away. It is finishing as I type this.

What a waste of talent. I even disliked Richard's acting in this role. No on screen chemistry. I cared not what happened to anyone here. I wished there was a voice off the screen yelling "cut!". "This is crap. I am not doing this."

The female protagonist is totally unlikable. Totally. Unlikable. No internal substance. Nothing.

The son was without charm.

They made the wife as clueless as possible. She has been married to this man and cannot tell that he has checked out.

The only slightly interesting role, was the female best friend.

Oh-- the intimate scenes were laughable at best. I cannot believe I actually fast forwarded through them. Yes. I skipped the supposed 'juicy' parts. Not compelling. They were boring.

I could find nothing to recommend this to ...anyone. Ever.

I did not care about the ending. I only looked forward to the time when it would end. I was laughing by that time. Ridiculous.

I am going to go watch North and South again. Now that is a wonderful use of Richard's considerable acting skills.

Not. This. Mess.
