Like one reviewer has said. The formula which worked on NBC. Just seemed to have disappeared. As it went indeed from the Sci-Fi to the police cop formula and the in the future that goes into a more rainy thing set in Metro but actually was filmed in Vancouver.
Replacing Joe Astor is Jeff Kaake's Thomas Cole an CIA ex-operative with evasive driving skills. As he recruits Heather Medway's detective and liaison. And Joe Napote returns as Frankie with a goatee and a bigger role. And Dawn Stern as Dr. Allie, the computer whiz.
Just the chemistry was not there. Kaake is OK but no Joe Astor. Napote gave the show much needed zip. But when Dawn was replaced by J Downing as FBI Agent Sherman Catlett. He and Napote were the comic reliefs in the show.
But just did not have the heart of the NBC series and really got ruined over it. Even though James McCaffrey would return as Joe Astor, still it was too little too late to save the show. If McCaffrey would had stayed on, it would had at least enjoyed a five year run. Not a three year one.
score 6/10
