Bit of an oddity this, as it stars Connie Britton, Eric Bana and Juno Temple and Julia Garner - the latter of Ozarks - in what appears as a romance but is soon clearly a tale of a nutter moving in on someone. But when I say oddity, it's more because Bana is in a TV show and one that runs for 9 episodes over a single theme. Bana appears one minute as a good catch and then not so much. But, why? Well that's the hook. Pretty soon on you see he has some gears running off whack interspersed with calm and kindness on top one moment and then serious coldness the next.
The opener is a bit slow in places with the rather dippiley desperate for love Britton and Bana in lovey-dovey stuff but Juno Temple is there to be the grown brat daughter from hell and her younger sibling Garner is near as annoying. And so it's a toss up as to whether the viewer will side with who overall but with something of a shock ending, you can imagine from one episode it shouldn't be Bana. However, how they quite manage to stretch this, going by the first, into nine episodes is somewhat doubtful as of yet.
