Positive review from the UK

For me, after two episodes it's still kind of a labor to watch, though incredibly beautiful. If only the same amount of excellence had been put into the characters and storylines. But it rarely engages. McElhone is good, but the Italian maid seems very English and the American singer lacks charisma. The others are mostly nondescript with a slight nod to the Indian friend.
