This episode bites off more than it can chew.

"The Jail" is a bit of sci-fi on "The Alcoa Theatre". It's set in the future and the justice system in this futuristic world is supposedly just...as they've taken people out of the equation. Instead, machines determine the guilt, innocence and sentence folks receive.

This first aspect of the show I liked and appreciated. However, the show did NOT stop at this. It became a bit silly when a man's mind is shifted into another man's body and this man then seeks to prove his innocence and find the guilty. This part seemed very farfetched AND took away from the good part at the beginning about machines judging people.

Overall, a show that started off well and then just fizzled. Not terrible but far from what it should have been.
