the main character is a raging asshole while the show acts like we're supposed to be sympathetic to her.

That's what they were going for, but missed completely. In the series it feels like she gets rewarded for being that way, the ending especially sucked.

ending especially sucked.

I thought it was very tastefully done. But that’s obviously a matter of taste.
