The jaw dropper at the end of the first part was great.

It is watchable rubbish .....and as you say Tricia Helfer(Caprica 6 from Battlestar Galactica ) is  enough reason to watch.

I'd guessed part way through that it was fake somehow.

Looks promising though.

But Tricia Helfer is hot, she was in Playboy once as well
