Ever run into a show that by all rights should be dreck but to your amazement turns out to be pretty decent? I did this week while watching TV in my L.A. hotel room due to a lack of other things to do right then. It was the series premiere of TNT's new show Public Morals.
By all rights the premise (New York vice cops in the 60s) should have yielded a dog of a show. Instead I got characters with enough definition to drive the story, a crisp pace, good acting especially by Edward Burns and Michael Rappaport, snappy dialog and what looks to be an interesting story developing.
What are examples of shows that to you should have stunk but turned out to be good?

The writing here takes into account that the series could end, leaving no "cliffhangers", and not focusing on any one character long enough to make him/her indispensable. Humans is PURE science fiction in the spirit of the genre. If there were a proofing system for scifi content, Humans is 100 Proof.
It's funny sometimes, I go searching for stuff on the net and I run across somebody who sounds like me in their writing, thinks the same things and laughs at the same images. The comment which was the context of that gif was HILARIOUS. Same stuff you and I have been saying about Lexi's hair blowing trick
