Review of Killjoys

Killjoys (2015–2019)
6/10
cool start
22 September 2019
In the Quad planetary system in the J Star Cluster, Dutch (Hannah John-Kamen) and John Jaqobis (Aaron Ashmore) have been inseparable bounty hunters, or Killjoys, working for the RAC (Reclamation Apprehension Coalition). RAC is beyond any government or corporate allegiance where "The Warrant is all". John secretly takes on a kill warrant above his grade for D'avin Jaqobis (Luke Macfarlane), his brother. Dutch helps John to get the warrant canceled as the trio goes off on their wild adventures.

The premise is fine and it's set for an interesting sci-fi cop procedural. Hannah may be the coolest chick on TV. Aaron is the funny one. The trio is fun. Somewhere along the line, the show decides to go crazy with the story and it becomes a mess. It's a confusing mess at times. It's disengaging at other times. It is still fun for what it is. Sometimes, it finds its footing and the show keeps going. I prefer the procedural to some big mystery box especially when the box is a box inside a box inside another box and so on and so on.
