Poor Man's rendition of I Robot
With the opening of the show, you can't help but draw the similiarities with i Robot. The founder of the surrogate robots looked exactly like the Professor that got killed in I Robot. One thing that I didn't like in the show was how 'plasticy' the faces of the surrogates look...maybe some people like this kind of flawless complexion. In the end, as true to most of his movies, you can see bruce Wiilis trademark scars & scratches on his face. But some how you just feel that the man isn't as physical as he used to be.
