That's an unusual take on it. To its many fans (myself included), it has superb, creative writing and excellent acting. It's certainly filmed very well. We all have our own preferences. Yours seem to be far from the norm (which I don't necessarily consider a good or bad thing).
Relative to the typical TV drama, it's certainly high quality. It's easy to nitpick or be hypercritical about any creative effort. I used to be consistently disappointed with Oscar winners and movies that got rave reviews because I viewed them with a more critical lens.
