3/10

This show represents everything that I hate - woke propaganda poisoned show with stupid & unrealistic script. For example, a drunk FBI agent knocks on someone's door to warn her that she's in danger because of her neighbor. Who wrote this ridiculous script?! FBI agents don't get drunk on their duty & don't act like that. This show is another low quality garbage from woke Hollywood.

You've reached the end.
