(no subject)

Just watched the first episode of Almost Human and I'm in! The thing is, angsty manpain is sort of a hit or miss proposition with me. I am as likely to wander away bored as I am to care at all when it is the basis for a show. But, when it does connect I tend to go into FEELINGS mode, which is the key to successfully hooking me into any show. And, honestly, I went into this predisposed to have feelings about Karl Urban's face. They didn't actually have to do much other than have him show up to push my buttons and add his character to the 'broken boys that are mine' pile. Throw in a sentient robot with feelings (and, no, it does not hurt in the slightest that Michael Ealy is hot...sue me, I'm shallow), a buddy cop vibe, a vaguely dystopicish future with flashy tech, shit that goes boom, and Lili Taylor? Yup, yup. You have my attention.

I will be deeply disappointed in fandom if there is not so much robot porn that comes out of this.

On to catching up with the episodes that have aired. I am having a horrible time keeping up with shows right now, so I suspect after that I'll end up saving up the rest of the season to watch in one chunk, but I will definitely be watching.
