A good pilot episode that introduces the viewer to the main characters and their backgrounds without becoming confusing or boring, a problem some shows suffer from.
In terms of production and execution, the directing is overall great, but a few shots were quite questionable artistically. The score and set design are A-Ok.
Perhaps my sole issue with this episode is its implementation of the stereotype that Middle Eastern folk are "terrorists". It gets really exhausting to see those people represented solely as criminals in media.
