It's a bit impatient to watch... [Full spoilers until S4E10! Be careful!!]

Very ordinary drama.
Up to now, it basically depends on 1) the main theme of ART that the middle class likes (although it is a little fake elitism and also a bit tricky and deliberately showing off). 2) The protagonist is beautifully chosen (Neal, Kate, many cameo beauties). 3) The characterization is more pleasing (Peter, EL, Mozzie).
But the big plot is very old-fashioned: after the death of the male protagonist's girlfriend is resolved, the male protagonist starts to look for his father... [Seriously?!]. The small plots of each episode are just as predictable as the big ones: pretty high. No surprises at all.
The big story is divided into two parts so far, the first part is, looking for a girlfriend - dying with your girlfriend - looking for a music box - getting a treasure - fleeing. This suspense point is not set right. Neal and Kate's foreshadowing is not enough, his dedication makes people have to feel very abrupt. Maybe at the beginning, I was a little interested in whether Kate was good or bad, and who was in her hands, but the suspense dragged on too long, and there were too few questions about it in each episode, so I couldn't catch the attention of the fans . As for finding treasures in music boxes, it's too nonsense to comment.
And the second paragraph of the big story is, arresting - looking for a father. In fact, when Ellen first mentioned that he wanted to introduce a man to Neal, I believed that many children's shoes who were following the drama had guessed that this person was probably Neal's father, and when ellen said trust sam before soy sauce Most people are sure that Sam is indeed his father. So, this suspense point is really set even worse than the previous one.
All in all, I can't see that the person who wrote the script has a lot of intentions, and there is a feeling that they want to write where they want to write something, and make up something random to complete the plot.
There's nothing to complain about about the casting and characterization, which is pretty good. If there is a small disadvantage, it is for a pairing like Sara and Neal. Seeing Kate in my memories, I found that Kate and Neal are really a match!! A hot cute loving couple! One is a pure white and innocent beautiful bunny and the other is a sexy and devious wolf dog. And then turning around to see Sara inevitably has a kind of beautiful half-old milf's footsteps. I don't think the atmosphere is very good. It would be nice to swap the actor playing Sara with either Alex or Maya or Black Widow. And EL and Peter are a great pair.
If each item is out of 10, the plot is 3, the filming and production 4, the character characterization 8, and the overall rating is 5/10.
Maybe because I was chasing Hustle who also said Con man all the way, my appetite was raised. All in all, the above is purely personal opinion. If you don't agree, don't throw bricks. thanks.
