Nothing is picture-perfect or a textbook cure, instead we watch as characters like Rue and Jules fade in and out of difficult times in their lives.

The latter tends to fall short, with unrealistic conversations or gets interrupted by a sex sequence or music number that overshadows the important twist or reveal. The producers and writers tend to prioritize style and cinematography over dialogue. The show is not without its criticism, however.
