Finished watching this series yesterday, in 2020.
From a film makers perspective and Sci-Fi fan observation, this is one of the best TV series I have seen overall. It's a bit like The X-Files mixed with the TV show Heroes (2006), with a dash of Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) and Looper (2012). Really unique.
It lasted four seasons and must have been dropped somewhat suddenly, because the last few episodes try to tie it all up real quick, and it ends leaving questions. I could totally see a sequel reboot of it, and they left the possibility open.
I enjoyed it, because it takes common expectations for this genre of film/tv and messes with it so from the very beginning it misdirects you over and over again.
It was fresh and intriguing, not knowing what was going to happen next. An excellent method of revealed storytelling.
The Cinematography is excellent, the story tight, just a really superior piece of film history.
