This was an excellent show! Much darker and more extreme than your typical crime show. Still,how dark and disturbing events get, there always seem to be room for some humor to lighten things up. The most fun aspect of the show is that you actually never now what is going to happen. Each episode is full of twists and turns that will surprise you. The cast is pretty good. Most of the characters are interesting and likable. Special Mention has to go to Peter Coyote. He is a dark and mysterious character himself but devoted to solve the complicated crimes. I am not going to say much more about the cast and plot. Since that will ruin the experience! That doesn't mean that this show is perfect. Of course it has it's flaws. Because of it's dark nature and themes this show only is suited to be seen at night. And you have to be prepared for it's content. And also the character development was a bit lacking. I must admit that there was some development noticeable but this seem to be limited to the main character Rebbeca. If this series would not have been canceled than it surely would have paid more attention to the other characters. At least the show ended well. It is concluded nicely and there are no real loose ends. If you get the chance than this show is definitely worth it.

Fox is, I gather, legendary for canceling shows. This one where all the episodes were not even sent is at present doing its second complete run over here, first TV3 and now TV6 Sundays at 9 pm. Although the plots with a captured Rebecca Locke were a bit repetitive, they were nevertheless well executed and played with a peculiar somewhat alienated intensity by Ms. Nichols, who is not only beautiful but obviously has considerable acting potential, as she also showed in Alias. The rest of the cast were quite good also, and the show should have been given at least two full seasons to develop such things as the relationships within the group of investigators including their weird leader. For the series was developing, and the last episodes had a greater directness and also better scripting. The series might well have made better in the ratings had it been aired in the autumn, for example. As it is, one suspects Fox to have a very strange policy of producing shows they don't believe in and then doing their damnedest to ensure their non-success. It can't be a good business strategy.

This show is another example of the poorly written, pointless story lines that people in TV land know the general public will gobble up. Far from being a great show, this show merely borrows from past works, and almost every sentence in the dialog is brimming with clichés.The main character is all over the place. One minute she is detached and cool, the next she is an overly emotional child. There is no cohesion in her character, and even if there was she is not the least bit likable.As an aside, the main character's boss would be doing jail time in the real world for the emotional abuse he inflicts on his underlings.In short, thank goodness it was canceled.

You see, I'm a TV jinx. Any show I like, no matter what the network, is sure to be canceled abruptly with no explanation. I liked this show from the first episode, and after the second episode it went on "hiatus", and then was abruptly canceled. The same thing happened with "Nowhere Man" (FOX), "Now and Then" (CBS?), "John Doe" (FOX), "The Fugitive" (the remake series, I forget the network), and many, many other shows that I grew to like. I'll try not to let it happen again. Maybe I'll try liking really bad shows like "So You Think You Can Dance", or "Survivor" or any one of those other insipid reality shows. Maybe then the networks will cancel them and leave the good shows on the air. Only problem is, what will I watch then?
