I left a review on either episode 2 or 3 and I wasn't totally sold yet on the series. After having just watched episode 4, I'm at the stage of really being keen on the different motives of each character. One main problem I still have is that some of the characters are predictable. I have found certain villainous characters are going to keep doing typical bad things. I prefer it when everyone shows shades of grey since that's closer to real life. For instance, an amazing TV series I'd recommend would be The Wire. Even the so-called 'bad guys' in that weren't really obvious. Their motives for being into drugs, corruption and killing had layers upon layers of reasoning behind each topic. I fear in Helix, they wont add too many layers since it's going for simple sensations like "oh noes the infected are everywhere! Squeeeal!" while the heroes will keep saying things like "No! We need to save everyone at all costs." yadda yadda yadda. I hope I'm proved wrong.
