   Finished the first episode I'd left half-watched. There's definitely a   
   time element even if the detective doesn't actually travel in time to   
   communicate with people in the past.   
      
   I'll stick to it to see if the detective story is entertaining. So far I   
   like the detective and the severe lab admin/tech but not the dead wife   
   as actors.
