I liked Justin Hartley on This is Us, so I thought I would give it a shot. This show is so bad. I'm not sure if it is Because of trying to make each of the episodes self supporting, but the simplicity of the plots has been laughable. The characters are boilerplate, from the chiseled, indestructible lead, to the hacker dude that can access data in seconds that evidently Iowa enforcement can't find, to the multitude of attractive women with little depth all fawning over the lead.
This dude can somehow home in on people that have been missing long enough to require a reward being posted without a single stray thread to chase down or a single wrong turn in the expanse of the Rockies. Even more miraculous is that he has cell reception every time he needs it, and he never gets hurt despite being in fights in every episode.
I'm still trying to determine what exactly differentiates the roles of the supporting characters. There is no depth for any of them. They all seem to be caricatures of roles the writers once saw on other shows and the actors do nothing to add to their parts.
This would have been so much more watchable if they would have allowed each trek to span multiple episodes which would have allowed for a few red herrings and less predictability. Then they wouldn't have needed the road grader to flatten the plot and character development.
