"Life" 1x1

LIFE 1x1 "Pilot"

Did you ask the dog?
No sir, we did not ask the dog.

This show was more appealing the more I learned about it. I like the fact that they're mixing in a little documentary style footage to cover backstory. It's very efficient. I also like how they started off the investigation with a severed finger, presumably the killer. This way we don't have all this meeting of 20 possible suspects - we can just look for the dude with a bloody stump on his hand. Now we can focus on the characters. Good cop show, good.

Amazingly enough, I got too caught up in this show to write about it. The story was elegantly crafted, plenty of fodder for the season has been established, and I'm waiting zen like to see how it will unfold.
