This show was so well-written. Great characters; great casting; great point of view set up for the viewer. The watcher has the experience of knowing with the main character what's really going on, yet no one believing him. Plus, it's just simply exciting. I found myself (my wife and I watched this live, from episode one to the end) tense (in a good way) and sometimes literally on the edge of my couch seat during and often at the end of each show. The story arc is fantastic. So, so tragic this show was canceled during its first season, going till only February or early March. However, the writers were told ahead of time the show was being canceled, so they adjusted to bring the season/series to a fantastic conclusion--one of the best finales of TV shows I've seen (which usually do terrible finales). I often had chills watching this (not from things being scary; just from the excitement of what was happening in the episode). It seemed like in the five years during which this show aired, there were 3-5 brilliant shows we watched that got the hatchet. I think execs are less hyperactively canceling good shows now. If you can get a hold of this, watch it. It's so fantastic. And it's only, what, 9-12 episodes? Not a big commitment. Oh, lastly, it takes place in San Francisco, which is a beautiful and different backdrop for a show. Even the opening of this show is great--on the level of "Vikings," if you know that opening.
