Shardlake - why I'm hating this series

Shardlake is the new Disney historical drama series based on the books by C.J. Sansom and all about a series of murders and mysterious deaths at a monastery. It's set during the Protestant Reformation spearheaded by King Henry VIII and his chief minister, Thomas Cromwell. I'd hoped it would be like Cadfael with balls but to be honest, I've been disappointed. Maybe you disagree, and please tell me. But I don't like the dialogue and I find the main characters totally dislikable.
