Great show so far.  Mädchen Amick is so fucking hot too.

She was hot in Gossip Girl this season, too.

Naming a girl Mädchen is no worse than naming her Nina.

The show was not bad but the premise hurts my brain. They really did not explain why in the hell you would want to make your super spy into a multiple personality disorder person. In the whole spy biz he is in there has to be some chance of one of your targets coming back after you now instead of having all your normal skills and knowledge you are a sheep with no clue whats going on during the day. That sounds like a very bond villianesque plan for failure.

Christian Slater hasn't been interesting since Heathers.

Not to mention all the work mantaining the facade for the alternate personality and the mind-wipes and continuity errors, etc.  Yes, it's an incredibly stupid premise for a spy program.  However, I agree with Trippy that it's got potential.  I also happen to think it'll blow it's wad after the first season and then drag on forever like Prison Break.

The show was better when it was called "Jekyll" and was made by the British.

I liked him in True Romance.

Still, yah... Christian Slater.  I'm not buying it.

Someone around here was talking about how they hate James Nesbit.  Not me though, I LOVE him.  I enjoyed this series, too.  Is it gone for good now?  As for these other two shows that were canceled - I had never even noticed them and now they're over.  Sheesh.  I blame switching to FIOS just before the new season and not liking the guide which in turn caused me to make poor use of my DVR this year.  Oh and maybe a wee bit on my pathologically terrible ability to notice things.

That reporter needs to get over their hardon for Wheadon.  Turning a "oh show's cancelled" into a "ZOMG THIS WILL TOTALLY HELP JOSS" blog posting is  swamp poop

I liked the show, but it's too convoluted for network TV.

I definitely want to see Christian Slater more in TV/Movies.

My wife was watching this, so I did passively while I computered and stuff. I didn't think it was that good. It was trying too hard instead of just being good.

Is this a new record for NBC? I mean this show had what 6 episodes or so?
