Negative Positive
Title: Don't Bother
Review: I stopped watching this half through. Too many storylines exist just for drama, producing unbearably maudline scenes, whereas opportunities for real drama were constantly passed up. By the mid point of this series, the trenches were just an excuse to show Matthew walking places and barely even looked dirty, Bates had become an insufferable sap, and any character that dared to espouse a liberal idea, would be doomed to also play the role of the simpleton.
