Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

SnoopyStyle Dr. Jacob Hood (Rufus Sewell) is a scientific adviser to the FBI. FBI agent Rachel Young (Marley Shelton) is assigned as his partner in unusual incidence.I guess this was another attempt at importing Brit TV. It lasted only 1 season or 18 episodes. It wasn't particularly successful. There's nothing particularly new here. It's a basically a police procedural with hot Marley Shelton and dark Rufus Sewell. The most interesting part of the duo is how low is Marley Shelton going to open her shirt down to and how much energy can Rufus Sewell suck out of the TV. It's not one of my favorites. Certainly not surprised of its cancellation.

morlvera I must admit, I missed this first time around, but caught an episode when visiting relatives in the UK.Not too convinced about the premise of the opening episode, with the implication that human cloning is somehow different, more complex and with the hidden imprimatur of the creator preventing a successful conclusion....it, ain't. If it's been done, it's been done and will turn out to have been no more complex than with any other animal. It's already been achieved with pigs and their physiology is remarkably similar to ours. What arises out of this is a profound and fascinating grab bag of ethical and moral implications, all of which the show seemed to side step, indeed it seemed more concerned with mid-market friendly metaphysical speculation on the nature of the soul - terror of the mid-west moral majority, perhaps? For all the hype about an intelligent approach to real science that this show seems to have engendered on forums demanding it's return, I can't help thinking that it fought shy from dealing with the (potentially) terrifying banality of what cloning represents and how it has already become part of the everyday discourse of animal husbandry and research (witness the pigs that glow in the dark - I'm not kidding!). To have shown that human cloning was just as banal and all that that implied might have taken a courageous leap of faith that the producers were unwilling to consider. I do think it would have made for a far more interesting, if contentious, episode though. I'll bet HBO would have gone down that route.Perhaps future episodes are better, I'm just not sure I can be bothered to find out.

taylor cullum Eleventh Hour is a breath of fresh air in the world of prime time TV. You have the brilliant biophysicist Dr. Jacob Hood and his FBI handler Rachel Young, along with the newest edition to the Elventh Hour, Special Agent Felix. It's more realistic than it's prime time predecessor CSI Las Vegas, even though some things are a bit hard to believe and seem sci fi-ish to ordinary people. It contains a bit of a slighty-more-than-friends sort of chemistry between Rachel and Jacob that can be compared to early GSR.It gives a very real perspective of things. Episode 4 of Season 1 was about Savant Syndrome, and there was once a scandal of sorts back in the 80s that happened that was rather similar to such things. To see that expanded upon in these episodes is a nice change from just cold blooded murder you see in all 3 CSI's.

sparkyanna i'm torn. this show is so bad that it's almost good. it's definitely funny, but for all the saddest reasons. first of all, the writing is awful. lines like "There's a fungus among us!" .... come on, guys. and the acting!! oh, the acting! i've seen Rufus sewell in several movies and i've always thought he was a good actor. but here he is laughable. maybe it's the writing. and Marley Shelton is predictably awful as well... lots of smoldering glances and squinting eyes to convey emotion... which somehow only gets conveyed as ridiculous. and finally, the story lines fail to hold anything resembling interest. each episode is consistently un-interesting and completely boring. the only way to know that "action" is happening is to listen for added drama in the soundtrack. so, in summary... if you're the kind of person who enjoys watching awful scripts and bad acting because it's funny, then you should watch this show. otherwise, stay away from it. unless you're a victim of insomnia. in which case, you might give this a try.
