The TVI Take

Martin Gero's NBC thriller anchored by Jaimie Alexander as Jane Doe, an amnesiac woman whose extensive body tattoos turn out to be encoded crime clues. The structural commitment to letting the tattoo-decoding mechanic drive five seasons of mythology-driven serialized plotting is rare network-thriller commitment.

Sullivan Stapleton's Kurt Weller anchors supporting work.
