Here's the thing about Almost Human: The entire season was a long, unsatisfying tease. Fascinating topics were briefly mentioned and then immediately dropped again
( Read more... )
I did (though I am still stuck in the middle of the last season)! And YES, something that kicks the show into gear, the way the alternate dimension did for Fringe, would be wonderful for Almost Human. It could be The Wall, absolutely; or Dorian's mysterious memories; or...
Just as long as the android/human dichotomy remained central to the show, and as long as the show settled down to actually go into some of the issues is so far skips over like a hyperactive hummingbird, I would be very willing to go along with any good scifi premise.
I was interested in this show because of the setting, which brought with it interesting topics, eg artificial life with souls, ethics of enslaved robots, and I'm also very interested in the society portrayed in the show
I feel exactly the same way. They created a scifi world full of multi-faceted, exciting topics just waiting to be explored; then they failed to explore either the world itself, or any of the topics, and instead tried to make a buddy action cop show in a coincidentally scifi setting.
Like is that what Kennex's wife's terrorism group is all about?
Ever since the Wall was introduced, there have been hints that there might be a valid reason for revolt against this state... but we don't ever see enough of what is going on to form a real impression of, well, anything.
