ABC Family is doing something they have never done before tonight at 9p, they are getting into the procedural business and they are kicking a$$ with it. Stitchers is a smart murder investigation show that you will quickly find yourself addicted too.
Kirsten (Emma Ishta) is a grad student with no emotions and no sense of time. One day her life is going to change when her roommate calls out her scholastically for something she didn’t do. The teacher feels he has no other option but to put her on academic suspension. To make matters worse, it looks like her father committed suicide but she seems to think otherwise. Since bad things come in threes, she is then kidnapped by a covert government agency for a top secret mission. They feel she will be the perfect person to take part in their Stitchers program.
They have discovered that after a person dies, their memories go on for a finite amount of time. They found a way that they can transport someone conscience into someone elses brain and get the information they need to solve their murder and prevent other ones from happening.
The clues won’t always make sense to her, so she will get help from Cameron (Kyle Harris), a neuroscientist who works on the project, Linus (Ritesh Rajan), a bioelectrical engineer and communications technician there and her roommate, Camille (Allison Scagliotti). The latter one and her find a way to make up.
Each week, they will be given some clues from a dead person’s memories and then they will go on a scavenger hunt until they find the killer. Then when it is all done, time for the next case.
Stitchers is a fast paced procedural that will have you guessing until the very last second what really happened. Unlike other shows like it, you will never guess who did it until it is revealed. Isn’t that what a good procedural is all about?
