The strange, weirdly dramatic style…I’m trying to put my finger on it and having a tough time - the tone in general bothered me.

But nothing bothered me more than the actor himself. The way he spoke, his ridiculously teen angst emo attitude…his hair alone.

I just could absolutely not take him or the show seriously whatsoever, because - even though I’d never seen it - I could literally not get the picture of Edward the vampire from Twilight out of my mind almost any time he was on screen.

There were several times I laughed out loud during periods which were supposed to be dead serious moments - and most of those times were simply due to the hilarious emo attitude of the show’s lead.

Was it intentional? He plays off like a character from a Young Adult novel, not from a legendary Graphic Novel author. The lead was just cringe incarnate.
