Not good

Acting, plot, pacing, and originality all bad. I usually try to support Netflix as I believe that they do bring out some diamonds in the rough, but I'm not sure how anybody approved of this series. I watched episode one and that's it for me. It was terrible. I guess it could pass as drunken comedy or satire, but I don't think they were going for that here.

Yes, this is bad. It's like a high-budget production of The Room. The first few minutes were interesting and then once they all started talking the dialogue and acting got stupid pretty quick. I turned off once that guy started trying to rape what seemed to be the main character of the show.

I thought it was pretty good. Definitely doesn't deserve the current 4.7 rating. It's nothing original but worth a watch if you are in the mood for something similar to Lost with a slight twist on it.
