• If you are a fan of adult-oriented dramas featuring a mixture of romance, seduction, and moral confusion.
• You like the episodic nature of storytelling Each story is fairly self-contained therefore you don’t have to start watching from episode 1 in order to comprehend the subsequent episodes.
• You’re comfortable with the modern-day relationships in the digital age such as video chats, calls emails, fraud on email, and the power of games.

The reasons to skip or be wary:

• It’s evidently an 18+ type of show that is not intended for children or for those who don’t like erotica content.
• Due to the anthology style character depth is very limited. You might not connect with your characters as strongly as you do in serial.
• Certain plots might seem familiar as well “web-series cliche” if you’ve seen similar ULLU or adult-OTT shows.
• If you’re not a fan of the morally gray or exploitative stories this show could cause you to feel uncomfortable.
