Sorry I tried to like this. I tried to stick with it. But for me nowadays I haven't the tolerance to watch drama when it takes way too long to get going. Starts disjointed with multiple scenes that make little sense. Poor dialogue and one dimensional characters. I need to get emotionally hooked or attached to a character early on. I didn't. The picture is so bad too. Maybe it's me but way below the normal HBO standard.

Not bad and watchable but it never lifts off. The writing and editing stink. Much of the dialogue doesn't work; many of the actors aren't believable.
