Parish - "A Good Man" - Episode 6 which I think was also the season
finale.  I know this is a remake of a British series so there may have
been some built in limitations, but this show really felt like it was
all atmosphere and acting showcase for Giancarlo Esposito.  But I really
didn't care about any of the characters.  It was just bad people doing
bad things while trying to look cool or say a catchphrase.  Overall it
just didn't work for me.

Thanks. The fire stick has been pushing this heavily the last couple of
days. Sounds like I can safely skip it.

 This is the kind of show I would probably watch if I had unlimited free time.
 But as I don't have unlimited free time I will almost certainly never get to it.
 

I don't think you're missing much.  I would suggest sampling the pilot. If it don't like it, you can safely skip the rest of the series.
