PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

andrea-m-mccrary I've been following this show since the first episode. I believe this show failed for many reasons ... including the lack of a plot from the very first moments. The potential for something interesting was there, but the show didn't take risks and was shallow in terms of characters and storyline. I have enjoyed the past few episodes, and I believe the show has developed quite a bit, but it just didn't have enough umph in the first few tries to keep an audience entertained.

djpitagora In short, this is a cheap version of Alias or Covert Affairs. It's about the "adventures" of a married spy couple with similar mission to the 2 movies above. The only difference is that the spy action is totally unrealistic and the movie also lacks a personal side of the characters. Normally a spy movie shows a double life: the agent, and the normal guy/woman hiding her identity from her loved ones. This usually generates some kind of tension in the personal life of the character, but in this case we are talking about a married couple, with no secrets.Did I mention our hot CIA agent is married? Sounds like her personal life is over :))

mamanoooooooo I tried. I really did. A married couple who are retired spies trying to live a normal life is called back to active duty. This spy vs. spy type show has been done a hundred times before, but this is the worst version I have ever seen. The dialogue is pure dribble. Sexpionage? Boris and Gugu have no chemistry so that idea went straight out the window. I won't bother going into details about the pilot, mostly because the plot was dragging and not engaging and I was so bored with what was going on that my mind would drift off and I found myself having to rewind to catch up. Im a huge fan of J.J. Abrams and was sorely disappointed that this show was so bad. Maybe it will get better but I wont be watching.

drigmy11 Far less enjoyable than any of Abrams' other offerings. I wouldn't really be bothered making any comment at all except for the fact that he has shown that he has some good writing skills in the past. Hopefully there is some improvement in future episodes but this pilot episode just seemed like any other generic spy/detective show I've seen in the past. Furthermore, the actors so far haven't shown anything above average, jokes, lines and delivery all seem pretty smug.I might give this show one more chance just because JJ has shown merit in the past but if the next episode is the same quality as this one then I won't bother giving it anymore attention.
