First Thoughts on Almost Human
Man, there's gonna be some great papers on this show next PCA. And if not--well, I can't dwell on that. Seriously, that second ep, I just kept thinking, "ooh, posthumanism, ooh, postcolonialism, ooh, let's talk about architects and design and society, IT'LL BE FUN!"
Also, is it just me or does that one guy-who-works-on-androids look, sound, and act like a badly aged Matt Smith? It's as fascinating as it is distracting.
Karl Urban's performance is a little uneven so far, but I think I could watch Michael Ealy forever. Let me repeat that. THERE IS A GUY ON SCREEN WITH KARL URBAN AND I AM SO TOTALLY FOCUSED ON THAT GUY. (I'm sorry, Karl. It's not you, it's me. But you know I'll always love you, baby.)
Anyways, between the Fox Network and the JJ Abrams, I am so terrified of loving this show, but--so far they are doing some interesting stuff. Admittedly it's interesting more in the "it makes my academic brain happy" than the "flailing fangirl happy" but--well, let's face it, most of the time it's not like I can tell where one starts and the other stops, y'know?
