You all need to watch "Utopia".

That is all.

Is it good? Tell me about it breh

it's nothing great but it goes into that good "trashy" tv. it's definitely better than nikita but the bytches on nikita >>>> burn notice.

it's about a spy who gets burned from the cia. basically they kick him out of the cia, take away all his shyt and put him under surveillance in miami.

the first season is him trying to find out who burned him and why.

each episode has him helping someone out with a problem. he narrates while doing his spy shyt like surveillance and building bombs so it's kinda interesting.

it's just easy to watch tv with a nice mix of action, humor and a decent story.

"Burn Notice" is cool.

Basically a guy named Michael Weston is a spy. He gets a burn notice and has to figure out why.

A "burn notice" is when a spy is fired by whatever government is employing them. Maybe they're a traitor, or unreliable, or maybe the government just doesn't need them any more. The problem is, spies don't have real social security numbers, or IDs, or passports, or employment history. So Weston goes around Miami helping people on some A-Team shyt, that's how he makes money. Each ep he helps a random person....also, each ep reveals a little bit of the larger plot concerning who burned him, and why.

The only downside to the show is it's formulaic as hell and after the 4th or 5th season you'll start to feel deja vu because at first it's like :ohhh: "so that's why he was burned"....then :mindblown: "what? it's something else"....and then :why: "huh? I thought it was....." and after a while it's obvious they're making the shyt up as they go along.

Oh and Bruce Campbell is the fukking man on this show. He plays Weston's best friend.

But anyway, watch "Utopia".

:shaq2:Sooooooo, Is "Nikita" anywhere as good as "Alias"? I'm interested in this show for like @poktanju mentioned, the females (especially Lyndsy Fonseca :noah:) & because IGN.com has been saying for years this show is good-shyt, slept-on & underrated.

it's not as good as alias.. it's not even close.

and if you think 24 is overrated compared to alias.. there's no way you're going to enjoy nikita.

it might've gotten better as it went on.. but i watched 1-2 seasons.. and it ranged from terrible to below average.

and this is the type of show that i would typically really enjoy.

I read on another forum that action on "Nikita" is on par with "Arrow". :leon: Do y'all agree?

:ohhh: I'm hearing what you saying bruh, but I keep thinking of Lyndsy Fonseca :shaq: & I gotta at least watch this pilot, breh. Plus I just went over the review scores on IGN (http://www.ign.com/tv/nikita) & "Nikita" consistently get better review scores than the corresponding seasons that aired in the same year of my favorite & the best CW show, "Supernatural".

:snoop: I don't even know why i mentioned "Alias". There's NO WAY, "Nikita" has same quality cast, crew, & budget-size as "Alias". IMO, "Alias" is probably an all-time underrated & unappreciated show if you look at the cast & crew who worked on the show.

i finished all three seasons of this shytty show. its a guilty pleasure and has its moments. the season finales are very well done and feel like movies. it gets kind of ridiculous the third season. i would give season 1 a chance

they are wrapping up the show with a half-season 4 next year

Actually they just wrapped-up the 4th season less than 2-weeks ago & it only had 6 episodes.
