Almost Human is a science-fiction crime drama television series that blends futuristic police work with human-android tension. The show aired on Fox and quickly gained a cult following despite its short run.
Set in the year 2048, the series explores a future where advanced technology is deeply woven into everyday law enforcement, sometimes as a help, sometimes as a threat.
Story Overview
In a future Los Angeles plagued by high-tech crime, human police officers are required to work alongside android partners known as DRNs. Many officers distrust these machines, especially Detective John Kennex, who survived a deadly ambush that left him injured and emotionally distant.
Kennex is paired with Dorian, an older-model android built with emotional intelligence, something most modern androids no longer have. What begins as an uneasy partnership slowly turns into mutual respect, as both characters confront questions about trust, loyalty, and what it truly means to be human.
The show balances crime-of-the-week investigations with a deeper ongoing story about memory, identity, and the cost of progress.
