La Femme Nikita was AWESOME. The Canadian one was REALLY real. Exactly what you'd expect a blackbook group like that to be like. I used to set my VCR to record it at 6 am. It used to be the first thing on TV, after the static (when all the channels used to sign off). The American version sucked; a HUGE disappointment. I'm surprised it lasted 3 seasons. They whitewashed it (a common act by the USA, unfortunately). BTW, every SINGLE person gave this show 5 stars, why is it listed as 4.9??

Never a dull moment, and you never knew what was real, what was manipulated, and who the good guys were. Dark, moody, and excellent performances from all the principle actors. I would love to be able to watch every season in order. Unfortunately, I can't pay this much to do it.

Loved this show when it first aired and I love it now. There are very, very few shows that I am willing to watch twice but decades later, I was still searching this one out. The chemistry and complexity in the dynamic between Nikita & Michael kept me coming back time and time again. And just when I'd start to think I knew what coming.. I'd have to think again. And, no reboot attempt has even come close!
