SF series take a variety of forms; Battlestar Galactica (space opera), Star Trek original (action), West world (robots vs humans) and many others. Incorporated takes a dystopian future, combined with a high-tech world, and human intrigue. It is truly excellent. The futuristic details in Incorporated lend it a ready air of believability; in-body tech, driverless cars, mind-reading machine, corporate warfare, all contrasted with poverty, climate refugees, and people doing anything to get by. Each character is made clear, their motivations explained, their actions understandable even if nasty. People are believable and it's easy to love and hate them. Well written, well filmed, intriguing, exciting, dramatic, Incorporated is also subtle and complicated with details revealing much, if not at first. Maybe too subtly for some viewers. Inception meets Cypher (2002, Jeremy Northam, Lucy Liu). Sadly, the powers that be have decided not to renew for a 2nd series. Viewing figures were low, I really cannot understand why. If you like your SF tense, believable, and thoroughly engrossing you can't do better than Incorporated.

Incorporated works because it takes fundamental truths of modern, capitalist life and leads them to their natural conclusion.This series is one set in a dystopian future but unlike many of its peers, its a very believable one, because its not far removed from life as it currently is, with society increasingly dominated by global corporations.It takes the current problems caused by rampant, unfettered corporate capitalism and projects what they will look like as the 21st century steadily draws to a close. Massive global warming causes desertification, concentrating power in the hands of a small number of elite corporations and their scheming minions. Corporations own and control food and water supplies, medical care, determine social and economic status, creating overriding extremes of poverty and wealth.The story line is not only very plausible but its backed by a classic tale of poor boy makes good not for lust for money but out of a nobler emotion, love.The acting is excellent helped in no small part by terrific storytelling and narrative. There's so much to like here, any flaws that do exist are rendered inconsequential. A rare gem of a series in a television marketplace crammed full of mostly unremarkable series. Nine out of ten from me.

I went into this not expecting much, but it turned out to be an interesting show with a great cast of actors. You can't really go wrong with Dennis Haysbert. I wouldn't say the premise is all that original but the underlying plot involving the main character was good enough to keep me coming back. My one annoyance with the series is Syfy's silly censorship of certain swear words. Have them or don't have them, but if you're going to have every possible swear word without censoring them why censor the f- word?

I was looking for a new series, started several! plots were thin dialogue empty acting pity-full, story lacking etc... i thought i wouldn't get a contender to compete with things like; vikings the walking dead, GOT accost others. This is a masterpiece cast you want to learn about and you get BITE size snippets which really helps :) the ration of future to past serves you up a real treat in this marvel. The acting and future tech the idea and the cast incredible shame i dint find it later could only binge 7 episodes but love this really looking forward to the next episodes. Futuristic elements second to none cast eye candy in the least with mad skills story gripping action 50% a serious thriller tbf. really clever i think
