6/10

This series has an intriguing premise, but the recurring storylines and cliché characters that have barely passable arcs and annoying personalities ruin it for me.

8/10

I didn't think I would like it, but I really enjoyed this! My sides split a number of times. Just disappointed though that it got cancelled.
