Stranger was INCREDIBLY good. This? It's pretty bad. The director seems to have a fetish for going up skirts, even with Cassie's children which is all kinds of messed up (you see this during her tennis scene episode 1). And then you have the villians....................they are such a joke, an unrealistic, laughing stock that makes the show almost unwatchable, but I'm trying to give it the best chance I can. I don't like how it glamorizes being a stripper, I've seen the reality of such a life it isn't pretty at all. And same goes for how the show glamorizes a heroin addict, they make him completely functional. Maybe it had too much to live up to after Stranger, but then if they didn't want that pressure they shouldn't have wagged that in our faces because the show is nothing not even 1% like Stranger.
