    I ended up enjoying it while remaining wholly unconvinced that Janet and Seamus belong together. Tune in if you’re a sucker for a warped vibe.

    Janet is much more likable than Seamus, but less developed as a character.

    Episode one does just enough to cast a sly, subversive hook. But Northern Irish writer David Ireland drops enough quirky clues to suggest that things are destined to heat up between his two offbeat lovers.
