HT is based on a comic book series by the same name. The hero of the show is Christopher Chance, a mysterious man who acts as a bait/bodyguard for those who are under threat and can afford his expensive services.
The show has a good pace, and enough twists and turns so as not to bore you after the first few episodes. In the background of things, several by-plots are persued such as what was in the past of our hero, who are his friends, and why he does what he does.
To me it's like a mix of James Bond, McGuyver, and 24 for added flavor. The characters has enough meat to chew on, and the nature of the show retains its comic-book roots. There are some low points as to the cast, but as the show focuses mainly upon Mr. Chance, it doesnt stick out enough as to drive people away.
Let's just hope that FOX doesn't cut this show before it has a chance to rise and shine.
