I'm not sure about the main plot either, but I didn't hate it. We'll see how it goes. (Thankfully the show did get a season two.)

The best parts for me were watching the sensates supporting each other in their daily lives to. (I LOVED Sun fighting 'for' Capheus, and the museum convo with Nomi and Lito, and half the cast helping Nomi escape, and Wolfgang and Lito's scenes, and all the really cute scenes between Capheus and Sun and Capheus and Riley. There were some heartwarming character moments in this series.)

That and I genuinely liked every couple, so that was different. (Nomi/Neets and Lito/Hernando were my favorites, but everyone was cute and had chemistry.)

Isn't the main cast basically tumblr's wet dream?

It is, but for some reason it didn't take off. Don't ask me why; the first season was solid.

YES to all of this. Something about them being all supportive of each other just hits all my buttons. Also that scene where Will warns Wolfgang about the bullet hitting Kevlar? Like, Will had his own worries what with trying to rescue Riley and as a cop he can't have liked Wolfgang killing his family, but he still helped. And then when Whisper tried to force Will's hand by directing the helicopter into the path of the ambulance and Wolfgang took over for him because Wolfgang has no problem killing if it protects the people he cares about. (That part where they all helped together to rescue Riley was amazing. Sun's nonchalant "Only four?" was perfect. And Kala got to be kick-ass and use her knowledge to help again! <3)

All the couples are very cute. I'm glad Lito and Hernando got back together (and got Dani back, too!), but I'm even more glad that Nomi/Neets never even wavered. I really appreciate how Neets is completely supportive of Nomi, even though the federal government literally stood at her mother's porch. I really hope they'll make it through to the end of the show (as well as all the other couples, of course. Hernando still needs to find out that his boyfriend is now eight people!).

I'm so glad it got a second season, though I imagine it's going to take a while before it airs. According to wikipedia it only got green-lighted in August and given how many different locations they have to go to to shoot production must take a pretty long time. (Can I just say I love the cinematography of the show? The way their visits are shot, especially when one sensate takes over the body of another, but also the scenery and establishing shots of the locations.)

It isn't often in tv that every character feels important, but because of the nature of this show and everyone's connection to each other the characters feel equally important. There were a few people who didn't get to mingle much together, but given how massive the cast is I think that's okay; it can be rectified in season two.

They really do protect and cover each others weakness! (Like you mention with Kala and Wolfgang, and that bit with Will and Kala. There's so many moments where one character needs someone urgently, either because they're 'trapped' and need a specific skill or because they need someone to connect with emotionally, and that's exactly what they get.) It's interesting to see a show where the characters can share their knowledge and skill in such a literal and intimate way. It brings up some fun possibilities.

Nomi/Neets were my favorites. They're so sweet and such a perfect example of what a supporting, loving couple should be. I can't think of many canon pairings that are that devoted! (Especially 'early on'.) I liked Lito and Hernando's story arc too though, even if it was a bit stressful and sad at times; it all worked out! Plus, Kala and Wolfgang have a lot of chemistry. Riley and Will were cute, but are admittedly my least favorite couple.

Can I just say I love the cinematography of the show?

This is honestly one of the best things about the show, other than the cast and the various relationships. The scenery is never boring; it's always something different and pulls you into the world. I hadn't given thought to how that much traveling must effect production, but you have a point...

All worth it, though! Not many shows feel this diverse; I like that about it.
