This show has gotten better and better. I have my doubts whether it'll get renewed though.
At least it looks like it will get resolved in the next episode though. I hate it when shows get canceled before they've resolved the storyline. It leaves you with such a feeling of dissatisfaction.
I do hope it gets renewed for a second episode though. It did start out slow and then pick up steam towards the end, but I imagine if you were unraveling a real conspiracy it would follow that kind of pace...
The first 10 episodes were like a slow burning fuse, putting pieces in place and building tension, with the last 3 episodes being explosion after explosion, literally and figuratively.
Other than Kale, the characters were a bit one dimensional, but the writing was great and the conspiracy intriguing and scarily realistic. I really, really hope it gets picked up.
I'm guessing the woman Catherine met at the safehouse was the sister of Will's neighbour/girlfriend not the same woman, yes?
Does Truxton give up and actually kill himself? He seems too strong willed for that (and played way too will by Michael Cristopher to let him go).
The one thing I really enjoy is that (to me at least) the actor's are all unknown, so all you see are the characters -- 100% immersion.
I was really looking forward to see where they were going to go with this fantastic show. The poor ratings are a sad sign of society in that the show was complex and plenty of viwers just couldn't follow it.

Don't really think it was that. Just that the show started off very, very slowly and made it hard for people to keep interest. That's what happen with me. Seems like the storyline really got interesting around the final episodes, but people tuned out by then.
I agree Joborule. I watched the first few episodes as they were aired, then started PVR'ing as it was pretty slow. Only to watch them when I was bored. When things started picking up again I started watching same day.
I'm betting a lot of people jumped after the first couple episodes.
It's a shame, this had some good stories developing.
Did anyone see the teaser for 'The Killing' last night during The Walking Dead? Looks like a great suspense thriller.
AMC is really trying to up the ante on TV dramas. Too bad this one didn't work out, but no doubt they'll keep the quality coming.
That's really why I hate this cancellation. The quality was there. It was a great show. It was well thought out and had some great performances by some relatively unknown actors. It just didn't appeal to a large enough audience. It's a great shame when this show gets canned, but the garbage like all the CSI's, NCIS's, Law and Order's that keep on getting spewed out ad nauseum. Rubicon was far more original and far better than any of the new major network shows that came out this year.
I feel bad for this show but to be honest I found it boring. And I love shows like this. I think they started it off a little too dry and just couldn't get myself to care enough to watch
