Prime Target

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.

Damn, looks like this is/was a mini-series, so (probably) no season 2. :( I enjoyed it!

Tried watching the first 2 episodes.

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.

Right now, the Popularity chart on https://next-episode.net/prime-target has the y-axis only labeled with "1951" - which is a prime number. :lol:

At IMDb, the show has gained 1069 ranks - another prime number. :cool:

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