It's not really 'horror' or scary. It's more of a fun psychological play on how we are. Yes, you, me, our friends and family. We're all like this whether we're aware of it or not, just some are more aware than others.
Each episode is pretty much the same but twisted with a different vice and different characters. They're each a mini episode that tells a similar but different story, taking place in the same world (or same city).
This 'paranoia' agent is our mind's attempt at justifying the dark thoughts and desires. People want to appear virtuous and good and many of us will do anything it takes to appear as such.
The characters all lie, cheat, steal, and even kill to try and keep their life on order and their reputation in tact. They all blame their flaws and failures on this 'paranoia agent' to remove accountability and guilt from themselves. Secretly they all revel in it.
There's no real character development or story progression because every episode is just a short story.
