This show is composed of some of my favorite genres: Sci-Fi, Mystery and more. And as most fans of a particular genre, I would excuse minor inadequacies and weaknesses.
However, this show, so far, and this episode in particular has major problems.
- There's hinting in conversations for the audience to explain basic logic.
- Most dialogue is lazily written and follows a formula of little threats, snarky comments etc.
- There's the overplayed and overacted Cliché of the loose canon cop, Lt. Ortega, whose only convincing performance is when conversing with her mother. Other than that she's been given exaggerated body language, overpowering delivery of every line etc.
Also, bland, non-relateble characters, AIs taking physical form around a table to drink alcohol and play poker(?) and some other minor things, I'm sure.
Worst of all, so far, it fails to grip the viewer. I don't find myself investd enough to want to see where the story goes.
