Anyone up for this. In a few weeks and I think it's one of the most interesting shows on television..(Keri Russel's little tasty box running around doesn't hurt either) Set in the 80's/Cold War era, written by ex-CIA operative (so Ive heard/read) which I guess gives it a level of credibility. Hide in plain site theme... Thought the pilot was spot-on..the subsequent few are developing storylines that could get real interesting, though I almost thought the feds were getting too close, too quick..but was more of a red herring which was diverted quickly in this last episode. I'm onboard..and so far out of the gate, Im thinking it's one of the better shows on right now |

I'm liking it a lot so far. It definitely has a better chance of lasting than AMC's Rubicon did. It's much faster paced in comparison, and you can actually believe there will be a payoff. I still wish Rubicon had been given a full season because even though nothing really ever happened, it had a really tense atmosphere and the acting was great. |

Got it set for recording, but haven't gotten myself up to speed...seems very promising based on what I've seen, read and heard. |

Season 3 has gotten off to a slow start, but you can tell it's building up to something big. I hope, anyway. |

The last two episodes have really picked up steam. There's still a heck of a lot of storylines that I don't know how they're going to resolve, but my worries that the show was losing my interest are gone. This is really the only must-see show for me. |
