    In the early going, APB is as generic as its title, failing to give us characters or stories that feel remotely realistic.

    It's the same old story TV has told a thousand times, with the same plot holes sloppily covered over by coincidence and computer hacks.

    The only way it would be watchable is if it was some kind of Robocop deal--and that's a 20th century idea. No, this is just another in a very large pile of not-very-good ideas that got turned into a TV show. Go play with one of your apps instead.

Do you think thisBillionaire, using its money and innovations, creates a service that helps people and a superior government analogue. Do you think this summary of this series? Not only. Is Pure Genius series, which has exactly the same story, only instead of the police station - hospital.
    Stereotyped idea, implausible story, and disgusting acting (especially Caitlin Stasey plays annoyingly). APB is one of the worst series this year.    … Full Review »
