This series is truly a masterpiece. I would argue it is one of the greatest shows I have ever watched. The story is full of plot twists and tension. What stood out to me the most were the "hacks" they actually are (mostly) realistic and not the usual "I'm hacking the mainframe... and I'm in" nonsense. As someone interested in cybersecurity, both personally and professionally, that made the show especially thrilling. I loved it from season one through four, it consistently kept me eager to keep watching.
The only aspect that felt a bit off at times was the way the characters talked to each other in casual conversations. I can't quite put my finger on it, but some of the dialogue felt slightly awkward. Maybe it's just me, but I noticed it occasionally.
Aside from that, it really is a masterpiece with an interesting and intense storyline and well-developed characters.
