Since it's a TV series, there are a lot of generic filler episodes that are just like Law & Order whodunnits + AI. But the high points, which eventually take center stage in latter seasons, are indeed the best depiction of AI and the issues surrounding it that I've ever seen on a screen.
- lobster_johnson 10y agoSomeone should compile (if possible) a list of essential episodes that takes out the fillers. The equivalent X-Files list is great. I tried PoI myself and couldn't get through it, because it was just so dull -- run-of-the-mill low budget procedural with that glossy network-TV feeling of Hollywood reality to it (e.g., everyone in the show looks like a model, except eggheads or villains, where they're allowed to cast someone unattractive). Several people have told me it gets much better, but I just don't want to have to wade through all the mediocre episodes.
