[personal profile] lilacsigil has a much more thoughtful post here about the pilot episode of this show.

My reaction was mostly like this:



OMG RACHEL NICOLS IS SO FREAKING BEAUTIFUL.

OMG CYBERPUNKISH LAW-ENFORCEMENT TECHNOLOGY!

HEY IS THAT CANCER MAN?*

OMG TIME TRAVEL!

OMG RACHEL NICHOLS IS LIKE THE TERMINATOR ONLY IN REVERSE THAT IS PRETTY AWESOME TOO.

OMG THIS IS LIKE TIME COP** ONLY BETTER BECAUSE RACHEL NICHOLS IS IN IT!

OMG THE WRITERS HAVE TWO SEPARATE THEORIES ABOUT TIME TRAVEL AND THEY BOTHERED TO MENTION IT AS A PLOT POINT!

OMG THIS THING IS ACTUALLY SET IN VANCOUVER NOW THEY WON'T NEED TO CHANGE THE STREET SIGNS AND STUFF, THAT'S SMART!

OMG CONSPIRACIES AND SHIT!

OMG I AM GOING TO LOVE THIS, THEY'LL PROBABLY AXE IT ASAP.

* It was, but I only recognised him from his voice. He's had a leetle bit of work done, or maybe he just looks less evil, I don't know.

**Amazingly bad time travel cop movie with Tom Burlinson who was The Man From Snowy River. (I NEVER FORGET MY TIME TRAVEL MOVIES!)



In conclusion, Rachel Nichols.

What, why have I never heard of this?! I'm not a big fan of time travel, but if they mention two different theories, that is a huge plus. Also, Rachel Nichols. And that guy! (Guy has been in three of the crime shows I watch, twice as a villain and once as a strong suspect.) Must investigate.

ETA: Okay, apparently the reason I've never heard of that is that it's not being shown in the US. Despite what the IMDb page says. Grr.

ARGH. The dl from The Vault is faulty halfway through. ARGH.

I am kept from my illegally-downloaded Rachel Nichols.

I have been debating whether or not I should make a post since I downloaded and watched this on a whim. Now I don't have to! This show is amazing and lovely and filled with glee. She has computer clothes!

Also my rational for downloading it was after reading the Wiki summary of the plot I went, "I liked Time Cop and Time Trax or whatever that show was called. This is like that with a chick." Only it is so much better.

We watched this this evening, and I thought it rocked. I am so looking forward to finding out more about this universe.
