Review of Almost Human

I was highly sceptical to this TV-show. After all it's a difficult genre to succeed in. I'm not a fan of Karl Urban, nor am I a fan of Michael Ealy, so both of those two were big ? for me. But I was very surprised when not only had the show a really good setting in the future, but also Urban has up:ed his game a lot since I last saw him. I have to be honest about Michael Ealy, haven't seen much of him, but he's really decent.

As I said the setting done quite well, they've pulled of the future concept really good. The script is a bit cheesy, a bit "uuh" sometimes, but in general it is decent and does it's job. The show overall is exciting, and they've managed to introduce us to the season's story. However it's to early to say anything about that.

The main characters seem they're really good. It's nice to see Urban's character development and his relationship with his synthetic(robot) partner. Though beyond the two main characters I haven't really gotten to know anyone else. There's the stereotypical office douche, the pretty face but zero character woman and so on. Hopefully it'll evolve into something more.

As a fan of Fringe, which this show does remind me of, I'm very glad that this has been made. It also has received good reviews from most parts.
