Great Almost Human conversation. I am part of a fan group (that originally was about Fringe) helping to generate interest about the show. So I am probably looking through rose-colored glasses but there are many things I like about the show. In order to LOVE the show I will need some sort of overall arc and stakes to make me really excited. So putting these episodes out of order has really been a slap in the face at the fans and I am hoping when it comes back it starts to build towards that.
Love the rotating hosts on the podcast. Always a good discussion and listen.
Carl, thanks for listening. Glad you enjoy the podcast. We’ve got some great new guests coming in February. Totally agree that Almost Human needs some sort of overall arc to create some real stakes going forward.
