Are you reading Clancy's latest book? I thought it has way too much partisan preaching in the book. Turned me off.

It was okay. Would be better on HBO/Showtime so they can show boobage and the dark side of spying in all its glory.
I did like the end. Thats what they can do well on TV. Show the cat and mouse part of spying.

Watch it. It's worth your time. You may not like it, but it's good enough you should watch it to see for yourself.

That being said, I really liked it. In fact, it was quite a bit better than I expected. It kept me hooked through the whole thing and the twists they used aren't sustainable over the long term, but I expect the tone to be set and other plot devices will keep the interest in the story. I thought it was pretty well done for what it was, and overall I'm really impressed. And good **** Keri Russell is still smokin ass hot. |

It was pretty solid. The Mrs. Karate Kid shit was a bit much though.

finally watched it off DVR and I thought it was pretty good. The agent who moves in across the street has a really memorable face but I can't think of his name. He and Phillip were really good though I thought.
It kind of feels like it should be a mini-series. We'll see if they can keep it fresh |

The only thing that gets me is , when Keri Russell didn't speak Russian at the safe house with her handler.

I thought it was really good.
It'll be interesting to see how they handle that Sopranos dilemma of having to root for a very obvious bad guy. I mean let's face it, these are as bad a guys as it got in the 80s.

They've already given the dilemma which is for country or defect for family.

The father could be a character the engender sympathy, but Kerri just shoved her finger in a man's ass for the motherland - something tells me that this is not the kind of person that defects shortly thereafter.
