The geniuses over at NBC axed the show after only 9 episodes. Last nights show was the last one.
I enjoyed the show. I usually don't go in for all the secret agent shows like 24 or The Unit but this show with the alter ego/normal average Joe was something else that added something interesting.
I esp enjoyed seeing the lovely Saffron Burrows again.

Why did they axe it?NBC said low ratings. If you can believe that.

I do believe it.
With such a lame gimmick, they wouldn't have been able to keep the series going for more than a season anyways. Look at Prison Break and House. They were great when they started. Then they tried to artificially lengthen the lifespan of the series with uninspired plot and formulaic episodes.

they actually cancelled it after like, two episodes. I'm surprised they even played out the rest of what they had. it was probably the best serious toned show NBC has had in a while. this leaves us with what? "Mama's Boy"? my fucking god...
on top of this theres less than two months left of Leno and Conan, as they are.
You fucking with me right?
That show got me hooked from the first episode.
Fuck Fuck Fuck!!
I admit not watching it on TV, but that was a good American show. . . and as it was getting good too.
Fuck
