Ok just watched the first episode and I'm thoroughly impressed. If you like Sex and violence then this is for you.

First off it is the equivalent of softcore porn, the only scenes in the entire hour without naked women and bouncing titties is the fight scenes, and even some of them have naked women in the background. That being said, there is a story, and the first episode more than kept my attention. In fact the story was downright intruiging.

Then there was the violence. Think of 300, only without the same large budget. The blood squirts and shoots everywhere, but it is done in a dramatic fashion not meant to be realistic, and after big blood scenes will literally cover the entire scene, or they will stop the motion of the charachters and the blood will continue squirting at real time speed. Sounds bad right? Not really while you can tell the budget wasn't there like it is in 300 it is done pretty damn good.
