SERIES PREMIERE: This is the one new NBC scripted drama series filmed before the pandemic, so it has better production values than most. And this opening installment provides a couple of eye-catching visuals and mysterious, physics-defying anomalies. The explanations for these odd occurrences, in both human behavior and unnatural phenomena, seem to revolve around space junk from an apparent alien spacecraft. But once the plot gets down to Earth, pitting investigative scientists against terrorist opportunists, will its gravity games maintain any
gravitas? Hard to tell from the premiere, which left me mildly curious but nowhere near addicted. For full reviews, see
Mike Hughes' Open Mike and
David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower.
