Once it establishes itself, and breaks free from its nods to 'Brazil' (movie), Bladerunner and early David Lynch, it becomes itself in its own universe.

The move to the Fantasy and Confrontation signals, I thought, a weakness in the therapeutic narrative mainly because the fantasy context and the separation of the two protagonists dropped the intensity. There was also no advance to resolution or acceptance which that stage demanded.

Arc of story spoiled by having wrong character as lead. Anniken should have risen in prominence, become the lead and the driver of the unfolding events. The last two episodes were plain silly. There was no resolution, no evidence, just ambiguity and irrelevant splurges of violence.

It is worth watching. It is like watching a series that has a plot made up while shooting is taking place. It talks itself through its own absurdities while walking away from problematic events.

The cast make it worth watching. And the FX computer people do fine work. Going for ''back to my family'' blah blah and times with the flakey Kellog instead of UST (unresolved sexual tension) with the buddy was a strange and unworthy decision.

It has much going for it but confuses ignorance and complexity with mystery and wonder.
