In episode 2 of Almost Human Podcast we take a look at the first two episodes of the new FOX sci-fi hit, Almost Human.  The series kicked off on November 17 with, “Pilot.”  In our review of the Almost Human pilot, we share our opinions on how this episode performed as a series pilot, the introduction to the characters, the use of special and visual effects, and the world that has been created in this new sci-fi drama.  We reveal some of the easter eggs that tie in to other Bad Robot shows like Fringe, Lost, and JJ Abrams personally.  We also throw out some initial theories on Insyndicate, Anna, why the DRNs were discontinued, and why Maldonado chose to bring back Dorian.

In our discussion of Almost Human episode 2 entitled, “Skin,” we share our opinions on the approach this episode took to some very interesting ideas involving morality, mortality, leaving a legacy, and existence.  We talk about how Dorian’s perspective on this provides and interesting lens to these topics and how we like that the show is using these subjects to tell stories.  We also discuss the relational developments between Dorian and Kennex, and Kennex and Stahl.  We discuss the use of humor, technology, and how that compares to today’s scientific landscape.
