Five stars because the performances are decent, and the show kept us (the wife and me) interested enough to think it was building up to something compelling and clever. The ending was a HUGE letdown. Much was never explained, and as the show has been cancelled, it never will be. Frankly, I'm not sure the writer(s) actually had a plan for where the storyline was going, but figured they'd just keep putting in puzzling experiences until the show got cancelled or they thought of something. I would almost have been tempted to watch a 2nd season just to see if this really was going somewhere. I'm glad I won't have to make that decision.
