Applause: The Event

Revisiting NBC's 2010 series, a high octane sci-fi thriller with quicker plot twists than a celebrity marriage, and elevated both by its rich, complicated characters and non-chronological storytelling strategy of modular vignettes. Never a dull moment and, except for a deranged journalist with whom I completely identify, no attempt at heavy meanings. Great edge-of-your-seat entertainment.

LATER. This series bombed. I love it.
