I wanted to like this show


but ultimately I feel a little let down. Somewhat similar to how I felt about Revolution, the concept sounded really cool at first but it quickly fell apart after the first few episodes.

I'm currently on episode 7, does it get any better? No spoilers please.

Well don't expect much of it 'cause it got canceled, but i really liked the show except for some classic characters like the nerd tech guy, the hot partner and a doctor who knows every thing. god could't they just make a new show with new ideas for the characters.

What do you think of Marg Helgenberger as Lillian Strand? I thought she was good in CSI but she seems mis-cast in this.

I think she did what the writers told her to do ,but the show didn't have the chance for the characters development, but to be honest I think her back story is a little old fashioned ,A powerful woman with a dysfunctional family and a powerful father.

I like Marg too but agree with jaoaud...they didn't have enough time to develop any of the characters before it was cancelled. She played Lillian a little too stiff at the beginning.
Oh crap! Just realized we won't ever find out about how dirty and powerful her Father really is!

At first I didn't like the show but it started to get really good and then BAM! they cancel it. They left a lot of story lines open that we'll never see get resolved now..

It's an entire season of crap with a pretty good two-part finale
No wonder it got cancelled. How the writers managed to mess up with a great premise and fantastic cast is a mystery
