So the pilot of this new show from the makers of Fringe aired last night across the pond with the second episode on tonight. Anyone else catch it?
I think it shows a lot of promise - I really enjoyed the first outing. Some rather Blade Runner-esque settings and themes - will be interesting to see where it goes.

Will give it a go but I seem to have way more US shows to watch this year then previous years.
I'm already struggling to get them all watched before the next weeks episode appears
Is it available on hulu yet?
I was in two minds if it was even worth a watch to start with, so much clichéd ground being covered. Robocop; alien nation; blade runner (as mentioned) and every cop buddy show ever made but it fell into the more entertaining than annoying bucket.
I was thinking the same thing, but it came across well, so I'll be giving it some more viewing time.
Yes it's on there
Just hope they get over the 'He's a sympathetic' relationship sooner rather than later.
Reminded me of Total Recall 2070, but will give it a go.
It was Fox in the US. This is a US pace thread.
I doubt there'll be any repeats, but it's up on Hulu for anyone with an American IP address...

Looks likes they spent a lot of money on it.
I'm going to give the series ago
Story wise I thought it was good too. Defintely going to keep watching this. Seems the net is really wanting this series to work having scheduled a double premiere night - episode 2 airs tonight!
Indeed. This was a very promising start. I watched, expecting not much, and got quite a lot. High production values, pretty good script and some interesting characters/ situations.
As you say, it's very Bladerunner in some ways, but that is no bad thing if it's done right. There's also quite a comparison to RoboCop, but again in a good way. I see episode two is already around.
I'm still struggling a bit with Michael Ealy playing the robot version of the character he did in Common Law, it almost feels like a Demolition man plot where the LAPD put him on ice when that show was cancelled
Next week it faces The Voice Live... So... Don't get too attached to this
But Karl Urbans dislike for robots & artificial leg, then excepting partner was a nod to "I Robot"
Yep you need the proper.
Will keep watching for now, assuming it doesn't get cancelled...
