Show is made like they were in the 90s or 2000s, but it is missing an identity and uniqueness. Think of Renegade, Highlander, The Invisible Man, Burn Notice. They have a unique character that can make every filler episode and cliché still somehow entertaining and interesting to watch. This show doesn't. I expected that Tom Welling and Brendan Faser would bring it, but so far they don't, they are poorly written. But still they are the only reason I'm watching it, hoping for something, anything. But I'm afraid it's a lost cause.

But it doesn't necessary mean a bad thing. It's possible that the whole purpose of this show is like a target practice, to see if our favorite Tom and Brendan are still live and kicking and capable of something bigger, before they set any plans in motion. Think of it as an audition.

Because that's what I would do, because personally I see a potential in them.

This was a huge let down, as an avid Brendan Fraser fan I decided to watch this resulting in being absolutely mortified by every minute of it. I would have given this negative stars if that were in any way possible. This has to be one of the worst shows I've seen in years. The premise and the unravelling of the plot is absurd. The stiff and wooden performances are, at best, distracted as is the direction. Cheap production values, a horrific script filled with cliché after cliché, laughable acting, there isn't one redeemable thing. This wasn't a funny kind of bad. It was just plain bad. Don't. Just. Don't.

It has the ingredients to be a decent show. Some of the casting differently doesn't fit. I gave the pilot some room for error because pilots always are a little jumpy. The second episode was a huge improvement. But this show has a long way to go before it becomes a interesting show to watch. Being a Tom Welling fan is keeping me in there. Also I expect more from a vet like Brendan Fraser as well. Let's just see where this season takes us.

It has Brendan Frazer's charm and enthusiasm, and Tom Welling's beautiful face, so I enjoyed it. Is it flat in spots and a bit predictable. Sure! Is it great TV, no, but it is definitely a fun watch. Lots of action, some trite dialogue and the back ground music is OTT on occasions but the story is good, there are some good plot twists, and the premise is rather cool. Don't know why so many have rated it so badly, as it is a nice enough show to veg out too and there is certainly always room for Brendan Frazer's goofy charm.

Not sure how I even managed to watch this because it was a failure on all levels. The acting on this show is unwatchable. I kept watching hoping things would change but Tom Welling and his supporting actors made me cringe into another dimension. The directing was the worst I've ever seen and the story was dull. Save your time and avoid it at all costs.
