Interesting concept for a TV show.
Basically, every episode arc is presented in non-linear manner from different points of view of the characters. While it can be a little muddled, it imbues the narrative with ambiguity that forces the viewer to suspend judgment since each perspective gives subtle details not obvious to other characters.
While not exactly brilliant, it is a very compelling experiment in TV that's not really been tried as the main theme of other shows.
