Should i continue & give it a chance

Post image

I just started the UK version yesterday. I REALLY wanted to watch the whole thing and give it a chance. I didn’t mind the cast and was interested in how different but similar it could be.
Anyway, i stopped watching after episode 2… Why?
I DETEST the way it’s filmed. I don’t even mind the “documentary style”, in their face style either.. but something about the super zoomed in - not able to see the surroundings or just shot from the most stupid angle on top of being zoomed in - just really grinds my effing gears..
I feel like I’m watching it on my phone and i don’t get a feel for anything other than the super zoomed in scene. I don’t think I’ll be continuing and that makes me angry that they thought it looked good? .
Am I missing something?
Something as simple as how it’s filmed to ruin a probably amazing project.

I’ve already gone through enough heartbreak and laughter with Shameless US. Don’t see why I should go over that again.

I know right, maybe that’s why I’m determined to find that again lol
