I Love this topic, the historical era and background, and I wanted to love how this series, because if done properly, could've added more conversation to post-war Nazi crimes, escapes, the Nazi hunters, themselves, the psychology of those being hunted and those doing the hunting, as well as the corruption of those countries who hid these despicable pieces of garbage, but instead it was a long slosh of bad writing, bad editing, and sometimes long periods of boredom. It had a little knock-off Tarantino and a little knock-off Guy Ritchie to the music, the intro headers and even color and filmography, but it never found its own voice or vibe.
The shooting was on par with Storm Troopers all series, bullets flying everywhere with explosions, which inexplicably graze no one. Scenes were edited/cut in which people were present in one, only to disappear in the next (All those soldiers at the hospital didn't die in that blast, yet here our heroes were, alone upstairs with Otto for a loooong stretch of time, or the one scene when our protagonist is cut free by some random guy, then that random guy just disappeared? He peaced out in less than 1 minute?) And, has there ever been worse spies than these jokers who hide in broad daylight for anyone to see, or more stupidly written villains who don't see that they're being watched in broad daylight?
The more I think about this show, the angrier I get. It had a chance to be so cool, so hip, so bad ass, but it ended up being a farce. This was such a far cry from well-produced, tightly acted and seriously written shows, that it became comical by episode 6. To boot: the cliffhanger stunk. I don't need another season of hunting these same guys that just goes in circles because our group of Nazi hunters are incompetent. At this point, step aside and let Mossad do its thing. Or hell, even Pacino's group were better than these goobers.
