They can’t be reprogrammed to mow lawns but can be to do porn shoots. A twist on the delivery gut “plot.”

The FedEx delivery robot can climb stairs. They teamed up with Dean Kamen.

I wanted to watch that show when it first came on but I got so tired of everything being filmed in the dark, I gave up and never went back. It sure SOUNDED interesting.

I watched every episode it had great plot lines but ended with a whimper. A little too much needless sex for my taste but that is true for most shows today.

The ending totally blew.

After the hsit that Elizabeth pulled with that Russian hockey player and his girlfriend and her son, I wanted it to end when Stan caught up to them in the parking garage. Yes, the radicalized 20-something daughter too.

I wanted them to all go back to the USSR in the same box. Suddenly, and with finality. That would have been a good ending for an evil bitch and her enablers.
