Maybe this was just ahead if it's time, or maybe it didn't get enough promotion. By the time I knew it existed it was already canceled. It was smart and very entertaining. I love the concept and the way they used the tech on a regular basis. My favorite was the virtual walk through recreations manifested by the implanted AI, allowing Gabriel to visit the still scene and examine evidence in detail. Some shows have a gimmick, like 'Lie To Me', where the protagonist had the ability to discern whether someone was lying by observing their micro-expressions. This would be displayed in slo-mo, making for some very interesting visuals. Unfortunately, the show very quickly moved away from its main premise and we got only a very rare slo-mo look at micro-expressions. With intelligence, the abilities that made Gabriel different, or special, were at the forefront. This show never forgot what it was about.
Casting: excellent. Josh Holloway makes a very believable ex special forces hero, working in the world of espionage, aided by his AI implant. The rest of the cast are all great fits for their roles. Even weekly guests are perfect with lots of familiar sci-fi faces, such as Lance Reddick.
Intrigue, espionage, action, emotion and just the right amount of comic relief. I really wish it had continued for more seasons.
