  • Hooked BUT…

    Absolutely eye opener in the world of drugs and love… betrayals… Jacob remains the human being that deserves redemption … the BUT is for the production… too drawn out… quality over quantity…

  • That’s it?

    I really enjoyed it but, that’s it? There was no conclusion? I don’t understand how that could be the whole season. What a tease.
