Review of Wide Awake for Sleeper Cell

This review of the upcoming season of "Sleeper Cell" gives little reason for a new viewer to tune in.
I had a couple problems with this review: First, it spends almost half its time on the phenomenon of Showtime On-Demand, which is only tangentially related to the content being reviewed.
Second, and more importantly, after listening to the review, I have no idea what "Sleeper Cell" is, beyond that it is a television produced by Showtime and that it comes highly recommended by the reviewer.
If you are currently a viewer of the program, or are familiar with its content, this might be to your liking, but as an uninitiated listener, it does not answer the most pressing and fundamental questions about the show.
