Homicide detective Tess Avery is forced to quit the job she loves after nearly killing her partner and being diagnosed as clinically blind. Reluctant to accept help, Tess uses an assistance app and connects with Sunny Patel, a professional seeing-eye guide and agoraphobe living 3,000 miles away. Haunted by the unsolved cases she left behind, Tess uses a hidden camera and earpiece, while Sunny remotely steers Tess through life's obstacles -- and crimes -- as the two challenge preconceptions about ability, trust and where to draw the line.

John Anderson Wall Street Journal 04/04/2024
[Sight Unseen] is more theoretically interesting than sharply executed... But the show will certainly provoke thought, especially among injury attorneys. Go to Full Review
Amber Dowling Globe and Mail 01/23/2024
If you stick with it, it all adds up to a fun and engaging watch. In the end, Sight Unseen offers something new. Yet at its core, it’s just one of those comforting police procedurals that genre-lovers crave at the end of a long day. Go to Full Review

“Sight Unseen” should remain as such. Go to Full Review
Bill Brioux Brioux.tv 01/26/2024
Dolly Lewis, however, is the one to watch. She’s funny in the funny scenes, deadly serious in the drama... Her super power is that she makes you believe that Tess is real. That is something to see. Go to Full Review

Chloe M @RT11371431 06/24/2024 Seriously amazing show!! Ate it up so damn fast!!! The characters, the actors. . . Just 🤌😘 has some stunning twists and turns that just make it so compelling See more Shelley S @RT22929410 02/24/2024 About time someone did a show with the hero having a handicap. I have a friend who’s blind and from what I see, I think a lot of the show around blindness is pretty realistic. It’s also educational as I doubt most folks know that most blind people see something. Same thing with agoraphobia - it gives us a glimpse of what having to live with that might be like. I enjoy watching as Sunny becomes a sleuth - which is what many of us who watch crime shows attempt. I also enjoy Daniel Gillies, Argam Darshi and Vancouver, BC. Yes it’s a pretty typical cop drama but those elements elevate it. See more Rick L @RT65201601 01/25/2024 So far very unrealistic, slow and boring, acting is sub par. I'll watch another episode then decide if it's better than watching grass grow. See more Read all reviews
