loved this show. its pretty sad that the best shows this year are the summer replacements and on cable- the riches, the closer, burn notice, pysch, army wives, and the two new series that lifetime is planning for sundays. why cant the big networks get their act together during the fall ?

I consider this fun, summer tv. I wasn't as bowled over as the rest of you with the pilot. I felt that some of the comedy in the voice overs was a tad forced. Plus the voice overs already are starting to get old. Sure it was good to learn about bullet proof doors and hardware stores etc. but some of the voice overs were unnecessary. I just think they need to tone it down some.

Still the show has promise and I will definitely keep watching. New shows during the summer are a welcome relief.

Really liked the show. It had me hooked from start to finish and now I can't wait for the next episode. I hope they keep it up.

I enjoyed it and will watch again. The cast is great. Have always loved Jeffrey Donovan since I saw him Touching Evil. I loved that show and was disappointed that it was killed.

Just got to it on the Tivo. Very, very promising show - I always love shows that show clever approaches to difficult situations. The tone and some of the themes of the show reminded me of "Spies" from ABC, which I found as appealing. It was disappointing that the show was canceled, though I'm thinking Burn Notice's USA parentage means it'll have far lower expectations. I never really enjoyed Psych (too silly and unrealistic), but I'm looking forward to a good run for Burn Notice.

Love this show too. I had a smile on my face through the whole thing. Don't know if he's the most probable spy in the world, but he's the funniest and most enjoyable. Definitely loved how they drew the character and his little insights (e.g. broken home = perfect spy, etc). My second favorite character was the kid who "wanted him to really kill somebody," but everyone (girlfriend, buddy, mother) was fantastic and spot-on.

I was pleasantly surprised to a show on USA that actually has some clever dialogue (not just "kooky" characters, which seems to be what most of new shows rely on). Since pilot episodes are usually difficult to write well, I was impressed with the production. It will be interesting to see if they can keep up the momentum.

I looked at the credits of Matt Nix (the show's EP/writer) to see what else he had done. Check out the short film he did a few years ago (be patient, it's short and there is an unexpected ending). Link is below

My favorite voice-over was the one about being tailed with his mother in the car.

I'm adding this show to my list...it's just really entertaining, it's not too over-the-top, and all of the characters are believable and (with the exception of mom) likeable.

On a side note, I'm really impressed with the original series that USA Network has put out recently: The Dead Zone, The 4400, and Monk have all been well-made for a couple of years now. Then last year they added Psych (which is silly but fun), and now this. Who needs HBO? Thank you USA Network!

I'm with #9 I did not like it at all.... well besides when Gabrielle kicked that guys ass.
