The Undercovers plays a bit like Burn Notice meets Mr. and Mrs. Smith. About a couple re-entering the espioniage world in less than ideal circumstances.

So this show just ended up on NBC after a bidding war, and I have very high hopes for it. However, I also hate NBC after the debacle of Kings. So if we want this high-concept, presumably well-directed, and hopefully good show to
survive we are going to have to take pre-emptive action. Or it will end up premiering on Saturdays at 4am in the morning, and then NBC will move it to Fridays at 6am to burn off the rest of the episodes. Trust me, it will happen.
We don't have a premier date yet, but once we get times everyone needs to committ to three episodes, and we need to bring in friends on this. I doubt anyone here is a Nielsen household, but apparently the only way to reach Nielsen households is word of mouth. Hey it might suck, but it probably won't, and we need to be prepared. Three episodes, and bring a friend. Thats all I ask. Please don't ruin this for me.

I keed, I keed, I will do nothing to help or hurt!
Well, that and "just throw a team of writers in a room flinging shit at the wall, and see what sticks."
Naw, he's just got the game figured out.
Just jump the shark in the second or third episode, and never come back down.
Supernatural semi-spoiler in that link, BTW.
Except this isn't the case with Lost at all so yeah
Have they explained why Ethan Rom lost his super strength yet?
I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.
Currently Ebaying Nothing at all but I might do in the future.
Really? Out of allllllll the mysteries on the show, you're going to pull that one out of your ass to prove your "point"?

Yes, it was the first moment of bad writing in the show. Super strong character suddenly becomes not super strong for no reason other than to have main characters capture him. If an explanation goes with it then that's just a mystery with a delayed answer. If there's no explanation then "A wizard did it". And wizard's suck. And by wizard I mean lazy writers.

I'm a fan of the Doctor Who and Spooks, but I don't recognize her.
Edit: oh, it's Martha's sister. She looks really different in that article
Might not be the best writer but he knows how to frame a shot, how to edit a sequence, and how to pace a story, that's for damn sure

Go back to season 3, and try saying that with a straight face. They only know where they're going now, because ABC sat them down three years ago, told them to get their shit together and find an ending.
Let's play Mario Kart or something...
Specificly look at the first 7 episodes of Season 3. They where brodcast in the autumn in a special batch. They sucked so bad the suits stepped in an gave them an ultimatum: "Start giving answers or else"!
Its amazing how much Lost improved after this.
Uhh...actually, it's the exact opposite. ABC wanted them to run it forever, the producers/writers then went to ABC and told them they wanted an end date or they were going to write more shit like Stranger in a Strange Land. ABC acquiesced.

No, they didn't. THEY stepped up to the suits and demanded an end date.

Seriously. You people need to get your facts straight.
ABC outright told them "If you try to end the series, we will just hire new writers to continue making episodes".
The Writers/Producers/etc finally got ABC to acquiesce though and give them and end date so they wouldn't have to keep spinning their wheels.
Lots of people have been telling me that Lost has been wrapping itself up really nicely
I didn't watch Alias
And Fringe was going somewhere last time I watched

And stupid. Literally everybody on that show ended up being double, and even triple agents. It was fucking absurd. I gave up midway through the third season. When I heard her boyfriend/romantic interest ended up being a double-agent, I knew I made the right choice.
