Almost Human kicked off with a very strong pilot and promises of a truly interesting season. It had elements in place that was sure to make for an interesting season. In many ways, it held up it’s end of the bargain, but at the same time it didn’t. Almost Human took an interesting concept of…
We learned new places like New Pittsburgh, where our story begins. A young girl Abby is waiting to get her meds. She manages to get it. The poor girl ended up dead and stuffed with straw near the wall. Turns out it was Kennex’s father’s case. One of his last before he did. Costas was…
Rudy is overstepping bounds all over the place as he roots around in Dorian’s processing core for more information about him. While it wasn’t cool that he’d done that, it was interesting that he found that Dorian’s image is unknown. For anyone who doesn’t know how operating systems work, an image is used to create…

Kennex’s inability to relate to kids was hilarious. His idea to do a cool trick like Dorian by stabbing himself in his synthetic leg, left the little girl he was trying to impress screaming. Dorian laid out everything Kennex has issues with, kids and cats being two of them. Despite his shoddy connection with the…
Aside from the initial comparison to I,Robot, (you know, a cop who has a cybernetic part and doesn’t trust robots) Almost human is a fun romp into a world changed forever by their technological advances. It is a world that requires every cop to have an MX (android partner). John Kennex lost his leg and…
So, I pondered...
