    It's an interesting take on the usual drama format, however, the mix between a documentary, drama and in-between narrations wasn't a successful formula. The narrations and brief interviews didn't add much value nor it enhanced the drama and its stories. There were a handful of stories running in parallel and most of them were weak and bland. Making them better intertwined could've solved some issues. Some stories can suddenly become overly political for a moment while grabbing the viewers heads and shouting direct preachy quotes and remarks, it was a weird injection amidst everything. They could've at least blend it better or have a better setup for it. The last few episodes are excluded since these mostly had a political tone and direction. Anyway, the show was just alright.
