I tried, but too many times normal standard protocols from 20 years ago are not followed.
1. Law enforcement heading to a known shootout and none of them have vests on. My local town cop wears his vest off-duty at a Pizza Hut.
2. Multi-million dollar technology, equipment and surveillance yet after finding someone via satellite from across the country somehow there are no cameras in main building, no doors locked in classified room/building and only one guard watching. I can't even get into the supply closet at work, yet here we walk/sneak in and out of militarily-controlled facilities.
3. Main actor never seems convincing, especially as a brain surgeon(remember Denise Richards as nuclear physicist in the Bond movie?).
4. Coincidences galore. Somehow in middle of forests, random alleys, or strange towns someone will pop up to save the day. That's okay a couple of times, it happens about three or more times per episode. There is zero tension.
5. Lights....very little of it. Houses, buildings, alleys....have little or no lights. People constantly walking into rooms and not turning on the lights. Regardless of stupidity, no one especially with events happening, would wander around a room in the dark. Even the military faciltity had what appeared to be 20-watt bulbs.
6. The subplots are numerous, boring and do not add to story. Definitely overuse of manufactured drama.
score 4/10
