This will be a hard lesson for Netflix


The male lead has no charisma whatsoever. And how many people want to relive the lives of the protagonists?

The trailer looks pretty, but I'm already yawning when I read what this show is about. The trailer confirms that by the way.

It will be a very, very, VERY expensive snoozefest, and most likely the first Netflix show that will be cancelled after the first season.

Yes, a very hard lesson indeed: people love it and want more. Of course, those who can only manage the trailer before reaching the end of their attention span will not be able to manage a show that lasts an hour without commercial breaks.

I have minimal knowledge of hip hop culture, and I'm not a fan of the music, but I found this show fantastic. Great cast, compelling story, visually appealing. Looking forward to the next six episodes.

You haven't even watched the show yet, so until then, your opinion about it isn't worth a damn because once again, you haven't WATCHED the show yet. And the young male lead has plenty of charisma--in fact, from what I saw in the pilot,most of the cast have major charisma. We get it, you don't like it, but then you still haven't even see it, so why the hell should anybody listen to your opinion of it? They shouldn't,for obvious reasons,duh.
