Judging from the title of the play, it is an American criminal investigation and crime drama. But judging from the setting of the story, it is a science fiction drama in the guise of a criminal investigation and crime drama. Why? The opening of the first season explains the whole background of the story - the government has a secret system, a machine that monitors you all the time. It can see everything, including the violent crimes of ordinary people. The government sees these crimes as irrelevant and does not want to act. This is the core setting of "Suspect Tracker" - artificial intelligence machines monitor everything. In the words of the show - machines are everywhere. Hundreds of millions of ears are listening to us. Tens of thousands of eyes are watching us. Yes, this is the super engine that advances the plot. Machines can detect death threats facing ordinary people, but governments turn a blind eye. Because of the government's indifference, the creator of The Machine decided to save ordinary people by himself. Therefore, the stories of POI are full of human brilliance. This motive brings the protagonists together to form a TM squad and begin to protect ordinary people in crisis. In the form of episodes, "Suspect Tracker" adopts the form of unit drama + serial drama. That is: each episode tells a separate story, but it takes a few minutes to lay the groundwork for the main plot. Why is it called "suspect tracking"? Because machines can monitor humans anytime, anywhere, they can predict crimes (suddenly feel bad for criminals). Every episode, the machine jumps out one or more numbers. The "suspicious object" pointed to by this number is being involved in some kind of crime. TA may be both a suspect and a victim.
