Like all CBC Dramas, this series starts very slow but the characters need fleshing out. But we are given the sense that the lead characters are evolving and growing into their roles. Like all CBC shows, the plots and subplots intertwine. And of course, some subplots go nowhere. It's unique to CBC scriptwriters. They have gone to the same school of thought for the past 40 years. Yes, I have endured CBC Drama since Wojek (1960s CBC Series about a Toronto Coroner).
This pilot episode takes me back to the movie "Dreamscape" which depicts a near future (1980s era) where psychic individuals from a government funded agency can enter people's dreams. While visiting people's dreams and changing their outcomes (to help their waking lives) they discover a conspiracy. Some other agency is also entering people's dreams.
