It's hard to write a useful review about a pilot that doesn't explain the premise of the series. Obviously, the guy is part of a sophisticated secret organization but that doesn't really clarify anything. But the girl is likable, so as usual, I'd watch it again to see what happens to her.
Michael Eh?
Kind of interesting premise in a post-911 world. 12 people have their minds wiped clean in a bid to play a game with unset and unsettling set of rules. The opening by Oasis is set with graphics to hint at some sort of plot. Origami ending is one of the most interesting stop-motion animations I've ever seen.
