5 Reasons Why Citadel Failed to impress Public

The ONE LINER

The entire show has a non-linear structure & toggles between past & present, making the series even more messy.

This lack of transparency has made it difficult to understand how Citadel operates.

The story is predictable, & painfully formulaic, Citadel offers nothing new on any front.

The show is an excruciating exercise, with viewers desperately hoping for something consequential to happen at some point!
