The dark, graphic mystery drama series, which began with season 2 in October of 2021, quickly began garnering attention due to its addictive and provocative plot and fast-paced story development.

I liked the drama the entire three seasons but I have to admit thet there were almost like 4 times I wanted to stop watching it because of the plot but it get me hooked with the exquisite acting.
