I struggled with this one - none of the characters come across as great except for Ch'ayna (which is probably the point, but also, ehhhhh also not great?). It took a while for me to get into the plot of it and then it felt like a just very hyped up scenarios that kept getting wilder and wilder. I do love a messy family drama and this has plenty.
