The story's fine, the acting's fine, the music is fine, but I can't quite seem to jive with this show's sense of humor? Far too often an otherwise suspenseful scene will be interrupted by a running gag for me to take any of it seriously-- they're not even especially funny gags most of the time, it's all stuff like a character's career as an underground idol or another person stumbling over his words and everyone staring at him. And they just don't stop. They never stop, nor are they well integrated into the scenes that they're in. It's a pity, because there's a really interesting story here buried underneath the surreal tension breaking humor.
