The girl was entirely unbelievable as a cop and quite annoying. I must admit that I could only get through 1 episode. Just couldn't stomach it. Premise was cool though.

This MINI SERIES is amazing. Patrick Stewart is incomparable as the brilliant scientist with all the answers. I want more MINI SERIES like this. In case i wasn't being obvious enough, this show is not a series it is a mini series. So, everyone bitching about how it was "cancelled too soon" are ill-informed or willfully ignorant. Some stories are better in a finite state, it's okay for things to end.

This show was absolutely fantastic! Incredibly engaging and intellectually stimulating with fascinating storylines and first-rate acting from a talented cast. Sure wish it would have stayed on longer, I remember I was crushed when it got canceled!
