The series is a solid 7 when it peaks and 6 most of the time. I have no clue how this series is rated this high. I just slogged through season 3 and 4 just because i already invested my time watching the first two seasons. Everyone starts acting like a moron from season 3. They create problems which could be so easily avoided. The show wants you to be an idiot so that you can ignore these stupid things and enjoy it. MEDIOCRE is the word. Not bad but not good either. Just overrated. That said, Julia Garner does an amazing job as Ruth, almost carries the show. Laura is a fantastic actress too.
