I wondered if this series could stay at the pilot level of cool, and it has. Pure cheesy secret agent fun hasn't been this good since Alias. Only, Maggie fights better than Jennifer...

Any other fans here?

I saw the pilot and liked it but with so many other shows demanding my attention this one lost the battle and I decided to carry on when it appeared on TV over here, assuming that it would be the usual several months later. Then I found out it had already started and thought bugger, but I still don't have the time for it. So I'll probably catch up with it in the spring when the current shows have finished their runs.

Love this show! Very impressed with Maggie Q's acting & action skills!
Even Shane West is good. (I'd started to watch some'n called Echelon Conspiracy, but had to shut it off real quick because I couldn't stand his performance.)

And, of course, you've got Melinda Clarke, who's actually looking better now than she did on Firefly!!

Lyndsy Fonseca. 'Nuff said.

She was in a pretty good (but kinda trashy) Hong Kong film titled "Naked Weapon." If you see it at Blockbuster, definitely rent it!

Oh, I kinda saw the test comin', cuz I'd recently seen The Recruit, but I never suspected that extra level!
I hope this show gets a chance to live.

(It should be noted that the new offerings from the CW, "Nikita" and "Hellcats," are performing solidly for the network's needs.)
