Season 1 Review: While the show took a while to get cooking, I'd advise viewers to stick with it – by episode 3, I was totally hooked. .... Make no mistake, the entire cast is phenomenal, but many of the show's standout scenes come courtesy of Daniel and his mother, Audrey. Read full review

Their occasionally prickly bond is built from equal parts snarky banter, emotional repression, and affection, resulting in something that feels unlike almost anything else in this genre space at the moment.
