The show premiered on Audience Network a couple of weeks ago.
Seems to be a classical CIA show, more in line with 24 than Homeland, I think. So if you miss the CTU, you might like this. It's not as fast-paced so far though.
Dialogue is acceptable and acting is generally good. Nothing spectacular visually.
There was some amount of conflict and the tension builds up during the episode, with the mandatory cliffhanger ending.
Nothing disruptive in general, but entertaining and with maybe some potential.
The main character is too much of a hero (too much of a good guy) to be able to achieve some depth, IMO. He's too smart, too honest, too humble, too attractive, etc. That's my biggest grip once I accepted the show doesn't seem to want to create anything new, but was certainly watchable. I'm gonna watch the second episode now and see if it gets better
I'd say 7/10, but maybe it's just because I usually enjoy the genre. So maybe 6/10 trying to be more objective.
