I actually liked the show. Yes, it does require some suspension of disbelief, some willingness to stretch the limits of what a person with synesthesia is actually capable of. Having said that, the action scenes are pretty good, the characters are actually kind of interesting in their own little ways, and I even found myself liking the story. Go ahead and watch it, hopefully you'll like it as much as I did.
