Kylie Rogers continues to shine in the role of Minx Lawrence, one of the key children controlled by an imaginary friend named Drill. She is the right amount of cute and creepy.

T-rex of Jurassic Park fame?). We […]

The debut episode “X Marks the Spot” begins with young Harper talking to what is believed to be her imaginary friend Drill (what happened to names like Bob?). The six-year-old calls her mom up to a tree house after following instructions from Drill; the mom falls through the wooden floor. The strange case introduces us to FBI child specialist Claire Bennigan, who is going through her own issues. Son Henry is deaf […]
