Sure -- I didn't like the chemistry in the ensemble cast. I never warmed to the actress playing Ukrainian Ninja Barbie, I found absolutely no chemistry between she and Hood, I found the whole "ninja suburban housewife" concept absurd, I never liked the actress playing the Amish sleezy incest girl, I was utterly indifferent to the black cliche bartender.
I was fascinated by Hood, LOVED Job (when Job was sharp and cool and haut couture -- not the soft, un-drag dressing whiner he became), really liked the dynamic between Hood, Siobhan, and Emmett. Felt sorry for and vaguely proud of the husband of ninja barbie before he became a simpering lap-dance drooling sap and then, from nowhere, a martial arts expert in an empty swimming pool -- WHAT?!
I thought Chaykin was off the charts cool until all the Native Americans became one-note uber-villains or idiots.
I enjoyed the Mafia Amish Overlord and thought he was a wonderful foil for Hood -- aside from the whole incest thing (which, why? She wasn't that that, frankly.) -- he was probably the best and most consistent character.
Finally, just as I thought they had driven a wedge between Ninja Barbie Suburban Mom and Hood with the death of Rabbit (cool story, great lead up, wonderful way ti played out!) -- and then that BRILLIANT "you can't go home again" dreamy episode in the house in the country (LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT) -- WHAM, it's all for nought.
They kill off Siobhan (which whom Hood/actor had chemistry), kill off Barbie's husband, kill off Emmett and start to rekindle the Barbie/Hood love.
Hork.
It's just not going a direction I'm interested in.
