    I read a few comments on this website where people compared the TV version with the movie and commented that the TV version should stick with the same theme as the movie. I actually disagree. The movie talked about whether people should be arrested for crimes they haven't committed because future can be changed. The TV version discussed that as well but focused more on whether the world should sacrifice 3 people to save thousands. However, the entire TV version has nothing to do with the 'minority report'. This term only showed up in the last episode. So really, why spend a fortune buying the license when instead they can create a whole new story by altering the structure slightly. For people who watched the movie they actually had high hopes with the TV version continuing the movie;s plots. Well at least audiences would not be as negative if this TV series has a different name I guess. Two characters I dislike the most are Dash and Vega, but unfortunately they are the leading roles. Vega acted badly, or I guess they could have picked a better looking actress, whereas Dash's character was just plane stupid. There are too many weak spots in the plot as well. Examples: if Vega has the heat sensing technology why don't she use it more often? Sometimes Vega just forgotten that she has this function in her VR contact lens and put herself and her partner at risk in the crime scenes. She knew showing the octopus tattoo drawing in front of Blake would expose Dash and she still insisted on doing it. Dash is too arrogant, it's quite simple logic that if he lays low, he won't risk exposing himself, Arthur and Agatha, plus saving more lives in long term. But I guess he is too much of a good person that just has to save this next victim even if it means he'll get caught and won't be able to save the thousands of victims after he got caught and gets put to jail. If he is that worried about other people's life why don't he turn himself in and keep saving more people living in the milk bath? Even without the other two he could still help right, like he's been helping Vega? And at the end, he doesn't want to kill Blomfeld but he has to sacrifice Vega. While Blomfeld only works for money and Vega could save more lives doing her job, it's not a tough decision right?I had many questions in my mind while watching the TV series, but I did indeed watch all the episodes so I guess it's not that bad after all.

    The first episode was not really great, although the more I stuck with it the more I liked it to the point where now I feel super disappointed if it was to be canceled. I think people need to give it a chance, sci-fi shows don't always hit the ground running, they often need time to develop and 10 ten episodes is not enough to establish the world they are trying to create. I think it is a huge mistake of people expecting this show to be like the movie. TV shows are nothing like the movies. TV shows need a story to expand from week to week, not a mere two hours to bombard you with a quick story and character with a tons of action in two hours. They need time to develop! That doesn't mean somethings don't need to change, but that doesn't mean it should be canceled or at least not give it a chance.

    I didn't see the movie- maybe that's the difference here. Again, this does contain spoilers.I remember watching Nick Zano on "What I Like About You" & I didn't think he was a very good actor back then so I wasn't thrilled to see him on this. He's not great but he got better. The woman who plays Vega though, (I think her name's Megan but I can't remember) she's bad. She isn't very likable but I guess she's not going to be smiling & happy when all she's trying to stop a murder. Her Father was killed on the job- that probably doesn't help.I can see how people wouldn't have liked it if they just watched an episode or two. It started off very slow. When they just had one of the pre-cogs (Dash) & Vega trying to stop these murders from happening, it was familiar & a little boring. As time went on though, we've gotten to see the other pre-cogs (Agatha & Arthur) get involved in the story & a little bit of their lives right after pre-crime stopped. One of Vega's superiors has noticed her great arrest record & is curious about it. The story has gotten better. If you've stopped watching, you should give it another try. (If you can get past the bad acting.)

    The show had such potential, but ruined with a few critical factors. I highly doubt it will be renewed, unless they make some serious changes. While the CGI effects are nice, the scripts are just okay, but most importantly - the show is POORLY cast. The main actress, Meagan Good, is difficult to stand, or to look at, for an entire hour. She suffers from severe "reșṯïng-bïṯch" face. That șour-půșs she touts around screams of perpetual disgust, or ingrain hatred, as if someone dumped a huge steaming pile-of-șhïṯ on her face right before each scene. Hardly the projected attitude you'd expect from a nobody actress clearly desperate to polish her plethora of talentless shows on her resume. Cast her in something more down her alley, like: Empire, Orange Is the New Black, or Scream Queens. If Minority Report is to continue, and be successful, replace her immediately . . .
