If I didn't know better, I would think this was a Lifetime series.

I have never seen acting like this anywhere else besides some terrible Lifetime movie. Everyone is either over or under acting so badly it's really hard to watch. The drama that is front and center of the show in the show is absolutely Lifetime like. Terrible writing. Cliched and VERY eye roll inducing. If it weren't for the obvious supernatural elements, this would have been right at home on that network.

Thank you. Now I can watch the carnage count on YouTube without FOMO

You won't be missing a thing.

In fact when I did my own little personal year end review of the shows I watch in 2019, I forgot about this show. Forgot all about it till I saw the notification of your reply. Tells you how I felt about it!

I'm a little late, but you are so correct. Drama that is befitting a Lifetime movie. I coulda sworn this was suppose to be a horror show. Horribly done.
