Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a short run with a modest audience and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who likes to be kept guessing and action fans. If you loved Prison Break or The Day of the Jackal, start here.
The mood
Tense.
The pace
1 season: a few weeks of evenings, episodes of about 43 minutes, about 16 hours in all.
What might put you off
Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
