Stitchers

I think you just don't need to overthink this. There are some irregularities, but they "had to" otherwise they couldn't get the story going. So don't question why things happen as they happen, it is what it is. Lots of predictabilities, so nothing really exciting per episode. They ticked the box to have a difficult family members( brother Camille, father Kirsten etc..), episode of contaminated body (still need to watch season 3) I am still giving this a 7 because..well...it's nothing creative, but neither are the others that I'm comparing it too. So you know...switch off your brain and have a look. Or have it on the background, whilest doing something else.

I think this show is interesting. it is true that there is alway this circle that a couple of series would stick to, but I think this show is going to get better if it gets a shot just like the other TV shows. the main characters are interesting, and from the three episodes I have seen so far, they are being better developed each time. the plot at first seems so obvious and nothing much to expect, but as we keep watching it reveals that nothing is what is seems to be, maybe somethings are easy to predict still not all of them which push the suspense admirers stick to the show a little bit more. I believe that around the 10th episode it will receive better critics and more followers. you will never know until you try.

I think this show has tons of potential, although I like it just the way it is now. I mean it has the potential to last several seasons, and I hope it does.

Other reviews have given the basic info on what the show is about - a sci-fi crime show starring a bunch of smart young people, sort of like NCIS meet Dr. No. The producers use a sort of TV shorthand: instead of a long, complicated back story, the Federal agency that "recruits" Kristin is merely described as "you can't guess what it is", or words to that effect. Why waste time on yet another series of flashbacks and explanations? We all know what they're talking about. Some of the other reviewers are bothered by the impossibility and "scientific" inadequacy of the work space where the corpses are kept on hand for the stitching process. Again, so what? We've been watching Star Trek and Dr. No for years without worrying about it - the flashing lights and dim floating bodies are all one needs to get it; this is a science fiction detective show, for heaven's sake.

I really like the way the geeks, including Kristin and her abrasive roommate, Camille, communicate. Along with the boys in the lab, they are unapologetically smarter than most of the rest of the humans in the world, and don't bother with the cutesy salutes to normal people that some shows use to make smart people more accessible. House and Monk are both examples of exceptionally unlikable people who nonetheless obtained a loyal fan following based on how their characters solved problems, and I think the same will happen with this show.

I love the way some of the characters in this show zoom through pretty complicated dialogue with no explanation or apology, and call me crazy, but I thought Kristin's first experience stitching was gripping; the hyper- ventilation was a nice touch, and totally believable.

I say give them a couple of seasons to show their stuff; they certainly got my attention.

Well, this is another sci-fi-ish series with the unoriginal idea to examine people's memories to find clues that could help prevent a crime like a bombing. Instantly my mind went to "Source code" (because in the pilot is about hidden bombs too), but if you count that these memories are from ...dead people you may also have an iZombie rip-off (which I stop seeing as I got bored).

There is a secret federal Agency, of course. And a special lab. And some Special hackers and scientists. And the heroine is ...special, with some form of brain dysplasia (like maybe the producers???). And everything is ...special BUT the problem is doesn't feel like it.

Emma Ishta, the lead actress, looks like a cross between a tall Scarlett Johansson and Taylor Swift but she is annoying as @#$&@. A pretty good reason NOT to see the show.

Technically also is sub-par. The graphics during the flashback are uninspiring and you've seen it before a 1000 times.

So. What is the target audience for this? I'm not sure. But I'm pretty sure I'm not in it. I suspect most of you too...

Show was a good sci-fi show, then in season 3 they decided to spend a good portion of each episode focusing in the characters romantic relationships. 3 different couples all making out with their partners on every show. I had to fast forward so much just to get back to the plot. That ruined it.
