The best thing about Sandman is also what keeps it from being accessible to the public (I'm included), and that's the artistic approach. The scenes and the effects are very well crafted, and it makes me hesitate to say that it's outright bad, but it's certainly not entertaining and that's a big flaw for a TV show.
Now, on the review webpage, it's labeled under "superheroes" but I'm yet to see one, or any of those SFX-overloaded battle scenes with the bad guy on one corner and five good guys on the other. The Sandman, Morpheus, isn't a character meant to generate empathy, it's not a hero nor an anti-hero.
He's neutral and cares only about his kingdom, which has unfortunately fallen apart in his years of absence due to captivity.
Overall, a promising plot and good artistic direction, but heavily lacking accessibility and rythm.
