Seriously.
And it started out so promisingly! The premise was good - multiple viewpoints slowly unfolding the mystery behind a presidential assassination. Exciting! Right? Wrong. Why? ( If you can call it, it probably happens, that's why. Spoilers here. )
I just. Why? It could have been so good. POV exploration of motive! Opportunity! Twists and turns! Lack of blatant bigotry! But noooo. Can't have that. Screw you, Hollywood.
