Wow, just when I'm about to give up on my favorite genre, I discover something that a lot of people have known for years.

When I first saw what I thought was a trailer for this TV series, the main character was a different actor from mister Michael Pare, and considerably older. Then I tried the show again, and a Michael Pare's familiar came over the TV screen along with two actresses and an older yet smaller individual as a hologram.

Criminal drama is the primary theme here, but also a good dose of "what ifs" and this productions take on time rifts and alternate realities.

It's somewhat low budget in that we don't see any exterior locations, and the props and sets are few. But the performances and stories are very decent, and the characters are engaging.

The series dips into R-rated territory with some nudity, violence, and other adult themes, but nothing too tawdry, just enough to get the message across.

All in all I really like it, and it's the kind of thing I would have loved to have produced has I stuck with a film career. Who knows? Maybe someday. Maybe not. But regardless, this series is here for us to enjoy. I'm just sorry that the second season had a couple of different actors.

View and enjoy.
