Michael played the same guy every time he went incogito with the bad guys... cocky, squint-y; only ever talking with his jaw thrust forward and mouth barely open, kinda slurred and muttered like when someone is pretending to be tough. Annoying! Plot seems well thought out but needed a better male lead to pull it off - ruined it for me!

Two more episodes left for this amazing show. I just wanted to say farewell to this amazing show. It was wonderful. Oh to anyone wondering the last two episodes air on USA on the 5th and 12th. That means Google won't release them until the 6th and 13th.

I enjoy this series enough to have purchased season 7 on my Android. Some of the episodes have a lot of holes in them, but it's a solid enough series that it's easy to forgive. The show is really a great combination of intrigue, drama, action, light-hearted fun and acceptable romance. It's the best TV series I've ever watched. Highly recommended.
