Is the rest of the series like this? If so, I can see why it got cancelled. Niko is such an unlikable brat and the plot line is so clichéd. I'll give it one more episode and if it doesn't improve, I'm done. As all stories of this type go, the show opens with Niko not having the skills and maturity to succeed on a test. Then he spends half the show acting like a spoiled toddler. Sadly, his tantrum gets him his way. His smile really returns when he basically says to Calvin "ew, you probably paid attention in class and got good grades, yuck". I guess the writers thought this was a sick burn? Once he has gotten his way, he's back on top of the world. You could switch off the show at this point. We all know exactly what happens next because it's been done a thousand times. The team goes off to get in trouble and it's up to Niko to save the day. He even gets to be hero with Calvin. See audience, you don't need education or skills, as long as you have street smarts and heart, you get the be the main character, superior to all others. The discovery and how it all turns out is so silly and so unoriginal, it comes of like it was written by a 13 year old.
