A decent attempt at addressing suicide

It was a difficult show to get into. The lead actor hamming it up in the early episodes almost made me drop it, since it came off as bad acting rather than just being goofy. But it got better.

The emotional moments are well handled with tearjerking scenes each episode.

The pacing is brilliant. It largely benefits from the case of the week formula, so there isn't a feeling that things are dragging.

Perhaps the most important thing is that it gets better towards the end which is often enough for me to rate a drama highly.

Despite how well the show handles suicide attempt, I feel it did a terrible job at addressing depression. It treats suicide like an on and off switch, all solved once the characters are taken off the ledge, which we know isn't how it works in reality. Now I know it's not supposed to be realistic but for a dark themed show, I think it could have afforded a deeper dive into depression for at least a few of the characters.

All in all, I would recommend this show to anyone who loves after-life fantasy dramas. It's a good one.
