I came here after watching The Gifted Season 2 and going through Nanon's filmography. What a mistake.

I was so excited when I watched the first 4 mins of ep 1 and saw that Chimon and Ohm were also in this series. AND Fluke Natouch also had a small part.

In the end, even Nanon/Chimon/Ohm's presence didn't make me enjoy the series. After Fluke made his appearance (I loved his cocky persona in his cameo), I had no interest to continue watching it further.

I used the word "crazy" a lot with The Gifted Season 2, but in a good way. The craziness there generated plenty of plot twists and adrenaline filled moments. The craziness here messed up the plot and left me with plenty of questions.

By episode 5 (or so), after Title's sub-plot, it became clear that each episode was dealing with a different crime, but in a way which doesn't contribute to the over-arching plot in an organic way. Those crimes just sprouted out conveniently along the way.

I couldn't see proper character development in our Blacklist group either. After just one prep talk, Andrew was willing to call Traffic leader (just after he said he will never see him as leader, in the same episode). Also, the motives of each Blacklist member to take the risk being part of this group were unconvincing. It was also hard to root for them when one's reason to follow Traffic's decision was just because "the teacher said so", and when the said leader didn't challenge the teacher's decision to let a mere student take risk by sneaking into the lair alone. As the series progressed, it became clear that the students were dealing with something dangerous - disappearing students, underground casino, physical attacks, drugs! For a teacher who claimed he felt very guilty for causing a friend's brain injury and didn't want to see it happen to his students, does it make sense to let his students continue investigating further? The teacher contradicted himself and the motivations of the student were also too weak to make me care about their success.

The numerous love interests were also bordering on ridiculous. What are the chances of a group of guy friends also dating another group of girlfriends? I don't even know why they fell in love with each other apart from "the script said so". Take the romance out of it and the story can still remain intact.

I also have to complain about Nanon's perpetually furrowed eyebrows. What happened to the range of expression he showed in The Gift (even in Season 1)? We know he is capable of more.

What a disappointment.

I stopped at episode 7, so perhaps the show picked up after that (total of 12 episodes), but it couldn't retain my interest in it long enough to keep going.
