This show is surprisingly gross, brutal, violent and sexual. More so than shows today, somehow. Maybe that's why it didn't last.It is odd that the detectives in this show have minimally limited authority to do their jobs. Minacon stun guns a CPB detective, disposes of a possible bio-hazard body, cleans up the room it was in, doesn't get charged with assaulting an officer and tops it all off by denying access to the black chick who started it all. Tough job.I like the Chinese element in the background. Too bad they weren't integrated more into this show. And the little electric transport vehicles all seem purpose built and not a "futuristic" version of a Ford or Chevy or something.

I keep going back and forth checking to see whether I am watching Total Recall or Bladerunner. To me this is closer to Bladerunner ( the city, population etc. Much more cramped, belak and over populated than the original Total Recall) While so far I have heard mars mentioned a few times, I would think that they would have spent more time going between the two worlds with investigations and storyline.While I loved the original Bladerunner and this show feels the way Bladerunner did...I believe they mis-titled this show.
Also, the police officer's wife, As engrossed as she is over her dead father, who died at the hands of a android...which apparently happened some years ago, how did she ever manage to date this man let alone marry him?She seems to be 95% of the time engulfed in her grief. Did they not notice this when dating? Not sure whether to call this bad scripting or just plain ridiculous. Divorce is hopefully in the future, just so we can carry on without this character that really doesn't belong in the series....regardless of the title.
