I haven't seen the pilot for "Harsh Realm" yet, but fortunately I was still able to enjoy this episode.

The episode opens with a bounty hunter arriving at a dilapidated old home inhabited by a poor family. One of the sons sneaks out of the house to warn his father (played by John Pyper-Ferguson), but the father is captured.

Later on Pinnochio is lured into a trap and captured by the same bounty hunter. Hobbes is captured later when he tries to rescue his dog annd Pinnochio.

We learn later on that Pinnochio and JP-F's character are wanted by Santiago because they know something about him.

Back in our world, Hobbes' fiance is approached by a woman named Inga Fossa who tells her that her husband is still alive.

So far "Harsh Realm" is a really fun show. Not as confusing as "The X-Files" but has all the elements that made that show so great.moreless

- When Hobbes picks up the wanted poster for rebels in the Pittsburgh Encampment, he is looking at the front of it and then as we see it from the back it is plainly flipped as you can see through enough that it should have been reversed.
