Prime Target features a brilliant young math postgraduate, Edward Brooks, on the verge of a major breakthrough. If he succeeds in finding a pattern in prime numbers, he will hold the key to every computer in the world. Soon he begins to realize an unseen enemy is trying to destroy his idea before it's even born, which throws him into the orbit of Taylah Sanders, a female NSA agent who's been tasked with watching and reporting on the mathematician's behavior. Together they start to unravel the troubling conspiracy Edward is at the heart of.
Sorry, no info about the next episode of Prime Target is available yet.
The TV show is either in vacation or waiting to start their new season. When information about future episodes becomes available, it will be posted here.
At least over those 2, the premise felt stupid, there was something wrong with the pacing but I can't really put my finger on it and the main character is so annoying.
I get that he's supposed to be a guy tortured by his own genius but please give him a single redeeming quality or something so that I can root for him at least.

Sorry to hear that. I enjoyed 1x2! Not perfect, but totally worth watching. :)

Yep, Episode 02 confirmed it - this show is definitely not for me.
At IMDb, the show has gained 1069 ranks - another prime number. :cool:

Enjoyed 1x1. :) Yes, somewhat predictable, but not too predictable for my taste.

Episode 01 was ok-ish...felt a bit too predictable.
The explosion at the beginning...the moment the mother left the daughter alone in the shop you know it was going to happen.
The moment he started talking to the barkeeper...you know they were going to hook up.
The moment barkeeper looked at his notes...you know he was going to get angry and throw him out.
The moment you know he is coming over to his professors house...and the professors wife has the pictures of the library at their home...you know he will find "numbers in the patterns".
The "slight" social awkwardness also feels somewhat unnecessary, could've worked better without it imho.

Let's see if Episode 02 is a bit better.
