I only just now found this thread. On the advice of some friends, a couple of them goons, I started this show back in April. A few episodes a week. I only just now finished it today, trying to get under the wire of it leaving Netflix. With 5x12 and 5x13. This was a really great show that understood its characters very well, was incredibly subversive for a network show, and way ahead of some of the ideas that were coming into the public consciousness soon after. The proceduralish seasons were very good, mostly on the strength of Michael Emerson and some great guest actors. Taraji P Henson gets better as the show goes on, and Caviezel actually fits just fine as an out-of-place Eastwood-style action hero type in a show where that doesn't quite work all the time. Chapman, Shahi, and Acker are all awesome. The guest actors and POIs are almost all awesome too. When the show goes full on cyberpunk it gets even better. It's been a while since I had a show that I had to stop and think "wtf" even when I 100% understood what was going on. I wish I had found it sooner.
