This show had so much potential: A crime drama set in the future where cops and robots work together to solve crimes in a high tech world, and Karl Urban.Unfortunately, these types of shows are very expensive to produce and must do high numbers right out of the gate. It's a shame the network executives didn't let it ride and find its audience for at least one more season. Sci-fi in prime time must be a big dice roll.Other recent attempts at expensive sci-fi dramas have also not panned out and been squashed before they could reach their potential, such as Minority Report that was cut short of even running an entire season.I hope that TV executives will continue to give the green light for high quality projects like Almost Human. I really want to see one work. How about "I, Robot", or was this show already that concept realized?

I actually really enjoy this show. The first episode was a little so-so but every episode since has greatly improved which has turned it into a solid show. Unfortunately as they cancelled this show after only one season it's time will be short-lived. I would still recommend viewers watch it though as it has a great premise, talented actors and has the excitement factor.Almost Human is set in a robotic future with plenty of cool Sci-Fi gadgets frequently used. So it's perfect for any tech geeks. One thing that could be a plus or minus is the lack of romantic relationships. Luckily they explore personal dynamics through the bromance between the two main characters which does provide a human backstory. Over time I would have expected this aspect to be developed so people could feel engaged with the characters.It's hard to feel invested but Almost Human is definitely worth watching.

A cop buddy/team show with a great futuristic setting. I usually am not into procedural cop shows but the setting of this show was compelling enough to reel me in. Plus it is not 100% procedural, there is a main story arc that slowly develops. The premise of the show is that in the future, to stop crime, police forces have recruited robots into the force. Our hero gets assigned with a model that has human like emotions. The center of the show, as you can imagine, was the human-android duo. While the show did choose the safe route instead of a more complex and difficult relationship, one of my favorite thing in the show was their conversations and how their relationship developed. Due to the setting, the crimes were mostly really cool involving futuristic tech and whatnot and was always fun to see how they solve it with their own high tech instruments etc. This show had lots of potential and had lots of stuff which it can go deep into but unfortunately, FOX canceled it after the first seasons (13 episodes). They really have a hate against good sci-fi shows.8/10
