Basically a mix of
Blade Runner and
Fringe, with a little
X-Files and
Judge Dredd thrown in, this is a decent show. JJ Abrams is involved so it's not a surprise there would be some similarities there. But that's the real problem; it's all so very familiar. The premise is just too tired and if you strip that away, that leaves you with a buddy-cop show, which is also too tired. Still, based on the first three episodes, I'll continue to watch. I just wish it seemed a bit less stale...not a problem if you haven't seen any of the other titles listed above and the myriad of others that are similar. But for me, it's a little too yesterday.
Good cast, production and if they're smart they'll pump up the really great music by The Crystal Method.
