Eh, the drama-y love triangle crap that seems to infect every CW show really drags it down. That and the fact that everyone is insanely attractive, I mean Roy couldn't make it as anything but a petty criminal? Also, and this is probably because I'm from where it's filmed, but they do a piss poor job at dressing up the scenes that are set in the Barrens. I remember one of them from Season 2 was done up under the Grandville Street bridge which is a pretty nice area around town. It's kind of infuriating because you go about 8 blocks east and you enter the poorest postal code in Canada. It's like if The Wire tried to dress up the Inner Harbor and say it was West Baltimore, it just doesn't work and feels incredibly disingenuous.
