I watched it just after reading "7 habits of highly effective people".
The entire time I watched I was critiquing the characters
1. They all lied, all the time, in different ways
2. There is zero trust between anyone.
3. I don't recall any female nudity (perhaps I've become more numb to it?) There was male nudity.
4. Even the "good guys" are terrible people. No one likes them, they are just as big of jerks as the "Heros". Main Character has PTSD from Episode One and it only gets worse (due to his own choices and actions).
It goes to the opposite extreme running the a basic premise of "everyone is a person", everyone has faults, everyone has needs.
The "best moral character" is perhaps Starlight, and she's abused, co-dependent on her mother, and struggling to come to terms with her new job requirements asking her to lie and confronting childhood beliefs and cultures (homophobia, premarital sex).
In the show thus far: no one has dealt with their baggage. No one's trying to in a health way (The Deep might be an exception as he's seen talking with a Therapist, but he's far from "good").
Without having read the comics: I'm not sure the "good" guys win. The protagonist wins. The "factually right" guy wins. But even that has yet to happen in the show.
