Watched the first season in a couple of marathon sessions over the last couple of weeks based on a friend's recommendation, then got a few episodes into season 2. The timeline manipulation was surprising and a nice twist in the end, but for the most part I find the writing to be pretty poor. Dialogue often feels hackney and there are things that take place with the technology that just seem inconsistent with their own reality. The characters and acting are also sometimes more out of daytime drama than out of top end HBO stuff. It's not bad. Entertaining enough, but certainly not rave-worthy.
