this show is a great spy show. Though the tech has not aged well the show is still very enjoyable. BUT years ago I bought all 5 seasons on DVD for 45 bucks! Why does google want 30 for one season? Too much money!!!

This is one of the few, feminine heroine action genre shows that takes full advantage of the great acting chops of it's star - Peta Wilson. Though remade into full movies several times with competant actresses, not one showed the full potential that Peta does, as the kick a##, uber-spy, seductress, anti-heroine! Loved this series, filmed in Canada. Great plot, storylines well written, couldn't wait for the next episode. I would recommend all 5 seasons of this series - Girl Power!

Before there was Alias.. there was La Femme Nikita. Great show full of drama, intrigue, spies, and of course a romeo and juliet love story! I'd love to see it become available to Australian customers.
