Average viewer score of 7.9/10 from 19 ratings.
In spite of decent acting, the premise and script for this series failed to inspire me. Overly long-winded, focusing on the thoroughly unlikable character of a cynical, entitled businessman, I found little to engage with here. Comedic aspects feel forced too and are either cheesy or decidedly slapstick. A mediocre watch, even if you like this series about people switching identities. A marginal 6/10 from me.
