By the middle of episode 3, I kept picturing this conversation in my head:
The writer, director and producers are in the room.
"Guys, they've approved us but they want 4 episodes and we only have enough material for 3," says the writer.
"Well, just write some more stuff in there!" responds the producer.
"Are you kidding?" the writer replies. "I've already explored every tangential diversity-related subplot I can think of and we've already got 12 minutes of reaction shots in every episode. I've got nothing left, man."
"Don't worry," says the director. "If we add 15 minutes of drone shots set to slow, brooding music to each episode, we can definitely get 4 episodes out of this. Everyone will think it's an insightful commentary on the amorality of psychologically-based crime and they will DEFINITELY pick up a second season."
And that's exactly what they did. My recommendation is to watch this while doing housework, because there's so much filler you don't really have to give it your full attention.
