I think that's a fair assessment. It's definitely a show that's either refining a good idea that was explained badly (if you're feeling charitable), or a show working year-long triage on an unworkable premise (if you're feeling uncharitable). The fact that the time travel show gave up on time travel about halfway through is a thing I will maybe never stop finding funny.

But, I find it funny, not frustrating or aggravating or annoying. Much like Sougo's remarkable ability to graduate from school without seemingly learning a single useful thing, I think this show's chaotic production and clumsy attempts to reinvent itself are kind of a hoot, in retrospect. That's probably not a good thing! I don't begrudge anyone for writing this show off! But I'm still feeling charitable, so I think its unevenness is a little adorable.
