1 Just plain awful
Not funny in any way. It's hard to believe this crapfest has a high Rotten Tomatoes score. Cringeworthy. I didn't so much as giggle in 21 minutes. Don't waste your time....

Any of you on here? The show's hit it's stride during the second season IMO and I'm enjoying this even more than the first season. They're doing a great job brining together action/comedy/drama...

The mysterious fires that burn in the distance, and the eclectic, almost ephemeral character Tamura encounters only add to the sense that Tamura is trapped in some sort of purgatory.
