Personally, I'd say it was right up there with the strongest episodes of my two favorite shows from last year, Hannibal (NBC) and Utopia (UK's Channel 4).
I plan on checking out another episode or two. If I gave Almost Human that long to find its footing, it would be a crime to not to do the same for a real science fiction show.
The bad guy is alive, talking smack, so Kennex shoots him in the fucking face. With no repercussions. Without even a single mention. Then the boys go out for beers and hopefully some cheap cop groupies.
