Intelligence

The series follows Gabriel Black, a secret agent with a microchip implant that allows him to access and process information at superhuman speeds. Tasked with preventing global threats, he often works with a specialized unit. However, the implant also has side effects and its creators have their own agenda, leading to personal and professional conflicts.

Intelligence received a mixed to negative reception upon its release. Critics often praised its ambitious premise and the performance of lead Josh Holloway, but found the writing to be inconsistent, the plot convoluted, and the special effects lacking for its sci-fi elements. Audience reception was similarly lukewarm, leading to its short run.

• Praised for its high-concept premise and charismatic lead.
• Criticized for its inconsistent writing and underdeveloped plot.
• Special effects and overall execution were often seen as lacking.

Google audience: Audience reviews are scarce, but those available generally reflect a sentiment of a show with an interesting idea that failed to fully deliver on its potential, often citing confusing storylines and a lack of engaging character development.

The role of Gabriel Black was originally conceived for a different actor, but Josh Holloway was cast after the pilot was re-shot with him in the lead.
