The concept of the show is fine on paper, though it's been done before lots of times and there's not really anything new here. The real problem lies in the amazingly horrible execution.

If you want to see a show with:

- paper-thin characters almost all of whom you'll really hate and who keep making the dumbest decisions motivated by absolutely nothing other than the plot
- pretty bad acting with the actors often looking like they're just waiting for production to finally end
- boring subplots and conflicts that mostly feel like they just exist to fill time and are usually caused by the dumbest coincidences and/or stupidity of the characters
- very lazy storytelling with lots of telling instead of showing and the characters beating you over the head with repetitive exposition
- overall really horrible writing, predictable and cliché-filled story developments on one side and on the other one scenes that are meant to be scary, emotional, horrifying, surprising or thrilling but you're just sitting there laughing at how unbelievably nonsensical and bad they are (same applies to a lot, if not most of the dialogue)

then this is the show for you. If you don't need any of those, steer clear and don't waste your time. Other shows get better or worse with time, this one is just consistently bad. Even in the few episodes where you think they're finally on to something interesting, they ruin it a few minutes later. This includes the very messy final episode - don't hope for a satisfying ending that ties it all together, there isn't one. The show ends in a cliffhanger that feels very tacked on, ending an episode that aimlessly throws stuff into the story with no clear direction. I doubt they ever really had a plan about where to go with this story in the long run.
