This show had a lot going for it and the character relationships made sense. Then...out of the blue they recast the very intricate and fascinatingly reserved, Miss Lydgate. Jessica de Gouw. Was superb! She was older than Max but that was the fascination. She has a history...a reserved behavior that keeps us guessing. She's also beautiful and beguiling. The recast is very sweet, I'm sure, but the entire dynamic of the main characters has been blown!! She's skittish, young and frankly, uninteresting. In short, the character is boring and irritating. This was a blunder extrordinaire! That particular "beat" has gone! Destroyed by someone's stupidity and poor judgment that undermined the quality of the story!
