Mark, a grieving man, takes a job at Lumon Industries, where a surgical procedure splits workers' memories in two. At the office he remembers nothing of his life outside, and outside, nothing of work.
Starring Adam Scott, Tramell Tillman, Britt Lower
Sci-fi fans who like their ideas worked out in cubicles rather than on spaceships will like this. The jokes come from office life, played so flat they unsettle, and the staff sort clusters of numbers on old computers for a purpose no one will explain. Tramell Tillman's Milchick goes from warm to menacing in a breath, and Adam Scott plays two distinct men with one face.
Season one takes two or three episodes to settle into its slow rhythm; season two is slower again, with several storylines running at once.
