First off, I think the CW could easily sue Netflix here from stealing the recipe they use for literally every single young adult-targeted show they make. This has exactly the amount of young adults doing young adult things in between all the actual story that you'd see on there, for better and (mostly) worse.
That being said, I actually ended up liking it a lot. The story is complex enough and presented in an appealing enough bit-by-bit manner to keep you watching through the first season, at least if you're a few episodes in. I've also yet to find any planet-sized plot holes, which is rare for a series like this. The special effects and music teams on episode 6 might have been more than a bit drunk on a particular scene, but that's also the biggest complaint I have about the visual presentation of everything. A special kudos for not making all characters' morals and actions black and white, and leaving season 1 both wrapped up and needing continuation at the same time.
