Left me wanting more, slow start to the series over all but now has become very watchable Nikita is still the better action thriller series but this is not far behind now
Well now, the latest episode was pretty good (seemed a big homage to the film "Rear Window" too). Liking how the story is evolving and how they managed to rope Carter in to what they're doing.
Seems to have found it's feet now and is getting very good. I like all the "Machine" bits where data briefly flashes up on the screen - although it often happens too quickly to take it in.
Read an interesting article recently with the show writers that mentioned that the network suits have began interfering with the show, asking for Carter (female detective) to be more involved with the main characters. Fortunately the writers did plan to have her more involved (as witnessed in the last couple of episodes) but admit that they didn't plan to have her know so much until later in the series.

Not to mention "Sliver"!
I'm enjoying this more and more with every episode. It seems to have found it's groove now and even added some much needed lighter scenes this week. The chemistry between the main cast seems to have clicked as well.
I've been watching this and think it has improved markedly over the last 4-5 eps. The writers are laying on a lot more backstory and it feels like they are going somewhere worth the journey.
