No plot, no acting, to tension, no drama, no nothing. This is said taking the show in isolation. I'm not comparing it to Blacklist, Kinght Rider (the remake), or even Work It (Where the remake might be a possible vehicle for Adrian Martinez but, I'm getting ahead of myself).
Things I found particularly objectionable (please note that I have flagged this review as containing spoilers) were...
The depiction by Adrian Martinez as an overweight geek who goes into a drooling frenzy at the sight of a scantly clad lady and the reverse Odeipussian :) attraction Susan Hargrave shows towards Tom. (That sub par subplot is like an obvious bad joke that most people are smart enough to avoid and the writers of this train wreck though was too clever to miss.
Back to Martinez, his taking up space in front of a camera doesn't qualify as acting and his stilted saying of words doesn't even rate as reading aloud. Perhaps this hour of almost dead air will attract enough people who don't bother changing the channel that the show will continue past the eight episodes that are already paid for. If so, this guy has to be one of the first jettisoned before the second onslaught of this show on decent entertainment.
