Claire (Kellie Martin) and Matt Thompson (Brady Smith) are suburban parents to teen Brody Thompson (Justin Kelly). They get a surprise visit from Ingrid (Patricia Richardson) who is the leader of The Jensen Project, a secret think tank of super geniuses solving the world's problems without claiming any credit. Claire and Matt are former members. Claire had left after disputes with her boss Edwin but Edwin has left the organization after stealing and sabotaging some valuable nanobot tech. Claire was the one who had worked on the tech.
This is an NBC movie which served as a back door pilot. Obviously, it was never picked up. There's a good reason for it. It's not inherently a good show for network TV. The obvious action in this movie is catching Edwin and stopping whatever evil plot is going on. It doesn't make any sense that Claire and Matt are doing the pursuing. They are basically the tech nerds in most procedural shows and this one would be a workplace full of tech nerds. There is some fine CGI for TV and its time. The best comparison is probably Scorpion which lasted four seasons but that show used a bit of sex and lots more action to sell the material. This Jensen show is never going to work.
