Well my friend did have a minor heart procedure earlier in the week, so maybe HE was drugged up. 
It was okay! I liked the cyberpunk look of it all and the effects are good, better than Agents of SHIELD. I will hold off on passing judgement on the quality until I've seen a few episodes.
I am trying to think of something FUNNY to say about Karl and the negrobot and me in an epic SANDWICH but I am definitely too drugged up!

The AV Club (with TERRIBLE NEW SITE DESIGN) gave it a C+ so I'll wait longer (and I have enough tv shows today.)

Is this real life?
If it had anyone but Karl Urban I wouldn't have been impressed, as it does feel like it's retreading lots of previous series (Blade Runner of course, but also Caprica, of which it shares filming locations and actors).
But it did hold my attention, it shows signs of some original near future tech ideas and it did have a human warmth to it that tosh like Agents of Shield couldn't dream of. It's kind of scifi for the masses, I guess. I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes, particularly once this first story concludes.
Must admit the good cop/black cop thing made me feel a bit uneasy, but to be fair, Urban's character treats all the androids like shit.

Drat - I missed it last night. Waiting for it to come on tonight.
If it is bad I will turn the sound down the sound and look over occasionally to catch sight of Keith Urban.
There will be robot cops in 35 years. What they will look like is the question.
How human do you want your robot to look?

Looking forward to seeing the second ep later.
WACKY YOU SHOULD WATCH IT
In the first ep there's only one girl regular cast member, but she's FCOTD-worthy (in my personal opinion of course), but maybe there are more in the second.

The second episode would have been better if the audio/bg music wasn't fucked up for like the first 15-20 minutes. Thank God for closed captioning.

I read some complaints about that on one of the things I was going to thingload, so thingloaded a different thing.
Anyway, as of episode 2 I'm totally SOLD and can't wait for next week's!!
This episode had a lot more life to it, I guess because it was free to just tell a story rather than pausing to let you know what the rules were. John and Dorian's relationship is really fun.
The giraffe was a nice little surprise.
"You're backed up..."
The sexbot showroom was the doctor's office in BSG where Laura Roslin got told she had cancer. I think it was used in V as the recruitment building for the kids as well.

Love it! It's got a weird 80s vibe that kind of reminds me of Crockett and Tubbs.
