Almost Human

Almost Human paints the picture of a very likely future, and was one of the better science fiction television shows produced in recent times. Set in 2048, it depicts the uncontrollable evolution of science and technology has caused crime rates to rise uncontrollably. To combat this, the overwhelmed police force has implemented a new policy: every human police officer is paired with a lifelike combat-model android.
John Kennex (Karl Urban), a troubled detective, has a reason to hate these new robot partners due to personal trauma.
After waking up from a 17-month coma, Kennex has to deal with a cybernetic prosthetic leg and huge gaps in his memory, which he tries to recover through visits to a black market memory-recovery doctor called a Recollectionist. Besides trying to remember as much as he can about the raid and The Syndicate, he is also coming to terms with being abandoned by his girlfriend Anna.
Kennex finds himself paired with an older DRN model originally decommissioned for police work and about to be transferred to the Space Station. Created to be as close to humans as possible, the DRN androids have trouble dealing with some of their own emotional responses, which was the reason they were replaced by the logic-based MX units. Kennex's unit, known as Dorian (Michael Ealy), immediately proves himself unique, with a clear dislike of being referred to as a "synthetic", and a dry, friendly, sarcasm-oriented wit. Key to the story arc is the growth and development of Kennex and Dorian's relationship, which makes the show as much a buddy cop drama as it is science fiction. Each episode circles around interesting new forms of crime which are only possible due to the advent of new technology. The writers have really done a great job in working with the producers and effects team to bring both these technologies and the crimes.
The show aired from November 17, 2013, through March 3, 2014, on the Fox Network. The series was created by J. H. Wyman for Frequency Films, Bad Robot Productions and Warner Bros. Television. Wyman, Bryan Burk and J. J. Abrams are executive producers. Although the show was positively received by the audience, had good ratings throughout the season, and even was nominated for the Emmy Awards for Outstanding Special and Visual Effects, it wasn't renewed for a second season given Fox's already heavy schedule and higher production costs than most other shows. The first season was promising, and will be loved by most science fiction aficionados, especially those who love a good mix of action and special effects.
