“The show is beautiful! The scenery is exceptional! The cinematography is wonderful, and the people are all exceptionally beautiful,” wrote one other viewer<\/a>, while another called it<\/a> the “perfect binge watch”.<\/p>\n

“Light-hearted fun and gorgeous to look at. Wish was more than 6 episodes. The setting is stunning. Was able to binge in one setting. Hope it comes back. The lead is nice to look at. Kind of a James Bond with a big heart look,” wrote one other fan<\/a>.<\/p>\n
