This came highly recommended by a friend. The acting here is good, even excellent at times. But the story veers off into nonsense. The series is based on real experiences of early FBI profilers, before anybody had even heard the word. I am finishing season one, and already it seems to be getting increasingly bogged down with extraneous and crappy plots. The thing that ruins it for me are all the anachronisms, too many to count. The show is taking place in the late 70's, and yet you have reference to things like fax machines and health care proxies, which didn't exist at the time. The couple is shown shopping at the grocery store, which is obviously a Whole Foods. No such thing existed then. Then the BTK killer. He was discovered in 2006 or thereabouts. Not this time frame. We also have the angry lesbian psychologist, just no. The show is not mostly about the FBI unit, so it lost my interest.
