It has set up a whole third season and seeded any number of potential spin-offs, right at the time when the owner of the property is launching a new streaming service and is looking for programming ideas. I think it’s done the franchise a whole ton of favours. |
Well looking at Rotten Tomato, the critics have the same view as you and generally approve. Shame the same can't be said for the audience scores.
