Charlie Jade (2005)
9/10
Nothing it's like it seems to be.

I started watching the show expecting some action series, mostly because of the title. Then at the first minutes I started to think it would be about some cyberpunk story with a cool detective, some action and the usual stuff. Well, it certainly didn't developed like the another one thousand and one sci-fi series. It's clear what is bad and what is good in that Universes, but thats it, the characters develop themselves acting like clichés but living like humans. They tend to interact wearing masks and occasionally they drop them away some are more attached to their cloak, like the ever cool acting Charlie and some are really tired of wearing it like 01.

It works the same way with the plot, it's clear that there is a problem with the rift between the universes, but the real story is not that one. The story develops episode by episode and it gets more and more interesting without radical twists or unexpected appearances. Every detail is dropped in small bits son the surprises aren't really unexpected and gives the story a within logic like most of memorable Sci-fi shows did. And this is a memorable science fiction work.
