There were a few rough edges but lots of heart that shined brightly once things got going.

In particular, although the ending was necessarily abbreviated it was satisfying. I’m surprised that this series hasn’t gotten the 12 or 16 hour long episode treatment. The three hours didn’t seem long at all but forced what I felt was a too brief treatment of some twists.

For example, the ending revealed several interesting connections among the living and the dead that deserved to be expanded in more background story developments.

Also the ending revealed a final ending for the main character that could and should have had a longer exploration vs the few minutes it received.

A little jarring for me was that midway through several people talked to a girl they knew died 7 years prior without much of a dramatic ripple. That really needed more context and development - the livings’ reactions and perhaps the formerly dead girl’s adjustments.

This is one that gets better as you go and finishes with a satisfying ending.
