I watched about 3 episodes based on the high rating of this show and i've got to say, I wish I didn't. I don't usually leave reviews, but this show is so bad I thought I needed to. Aside from the fact that it glorifies drug use and makes it appear that using drugs will make you a better chess player - which is absurd - this show is just really stupid. I don't think the writers know much about chess at all. Most of the story isn't even about chess it's about messed up children who do drugs and want to have sex. And that story line is not even entertaining. Just boring all around and bad writing. Good acting and costume and set design got this up to a 3 for me, but that couldn't keep me watching for long.
