One star for enjoyable show and lousy streaming policy. Episodes 1 and 2 available on Amazon, same price without the theft and zero customer support of Play store. Time to contact consumer protection agencies and remember this institutionalized thievery by Google when voting in the next election. SyFy should be ashamed to do business with such criminals. Also available on Xfinity, (my ISP) cheaper in SD.

I have high hopes. The story is as intriguing and likeable as Tudyk. Normally Scifi uses a pilot to give you basic exposition and character introductions. This one just jumped in and engaged. Eagerly awaiting episode 2. * edit Attempted a refund. Amazon has the same thing for the same price but they actually deliver it. This is a scam. DO NOT PURCHASE because there is no way to contact customer service to get issues resolved. Low review is for unavailability not the show

Very enjoyable show but don't buy it on Google. Buy it on Amazon Prime which delivers each episode on a timeline basis and also works correctly. I don't partciularly like Amazon but at least it works. Though I have hundreds of shows and movies, there are just too many issues with streaming on Google Play. Alan Tudyk is one of my favorite actors. Lots know him from Firefly but it was in "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil" that I really started to appreciate his timing. Since then I've watched his other movies and enjoyed them. If you're old enough to remember "My Favorite Martian" you would get a kick out of this. Well, the premise is roughty similar but it's quite different in tone.
