Three unlikely colleagues -- a beautiful young FBI agent, a brilliant scientist who's spent the last 17 years in a mental institution, and the scientist's sardonic son -- investigate a series of bizarre deaths and disasters known as 'the pattern.' Someone is using our world as an experimental lab. And all clues lead to Massive Dynamic, a shadowy global corporation that may be more powerful than any nation.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Solid submitted by mbsymes on August 15, 2018, 5:12pm This show starts off as a typical police procedural/x-files knock-off with some science fiction elements but quickly builds its own unique voice and backstory that eventually connects all the seemingly one-off episodes from the first season into a brilliantly told story. It has everything you could want, monsters, romance, science fiction, a plot that is consistent and not made up as it went, good conclusion, father son relationships, more monsters, a thoughtful critique on the power of technology, and so much more that I would be a jerk to spoil. Highly recommend!

It Pays to Pay Attention submitted by caburr47 on June 14, 2020, 6:24pm This show is wonderful, a well thought out drama punctuated by excellent quips and jokes that you don't expect that lighten the show. This show gives you hints and easter eggs throughout the show for those who are paying attention.

So Cool! submitted by APluss on July 20, 2023, 8:12am I'm almost done with a rewatch. I saw it when it was new, 13 years ago, and it's just as fresh and fascinating as it was then. It's a great show.
