Yes the first season wasn't the best and cringey at times-but the second season was well written well acted and directed and overall intriguing
,badass and beautiful.
The third season was far by the best -specially the first part hich managed to be beautiful,dark and yet somewhat humorous.
It explores the lgbtq community,the shapes of love,the darkness in our hearts and the light in them.
ALL love in it isnt depicted by lust since sibling bonds are beautifully done.
Last but not least,i is different from the book series it was inspired from ..
It definitely was beter in some aspects as it did not ignore lgbt+ relationships or promote inscest or girl hate...
