> It premiered a couple weeks ago, and I highly recommend it. It’s a mystery thriller with a bit of dark office humor. High level view, it’s about people who have their minds “severed” so when they’re at work they have no memory of their outside life and vice-versa. Think Black Mirror meets The Prisoner meets Better off Ted. Edit: Also, for those of you who were fans of Counterpart, it has a very similar feel to it.
