    It's startling just how poorly written this is, the first episode is a cornucopia of unintentional cringe. I practically winced through almost every character interaction because they're all plagued by either; bad directing, bad writing, bad acting, or all three if you're really lucky. With the recent explosion in quality TV, the accident is a throwback in a really bad way.

    It was a drama in search of a soul, but what it found ultimately was formula.

    You might guess that an accident like this would expose corporate malfeasance and government neglect, but in Thorne and his cast’s skilful hands, these events expose smaller-scale traumas, too, none the less devastating.

    It promises to be a fittingly thoughtful and wholly absorbing last installment.
