Nikita

Started watching the first episode of a US TV show this morning called Nikita. If you've seen 'The Point of No Return' starring Bridget Fonda, it's exactly the same.

There's 2 seasons out, so plenty to watch. Seems good so far.

You'll be hooked by mid-season. pretty much the best action TV series on TV right now.

First season was awesome. But haven't really got into Season 2 for some reason.

It also looks like it may be canceled because of poor ratings in America

The original french film is much better than the remake, incase you hadn't seen it.

Same here, I'm not sure why but it seemed most of the story for me was fulfilled in Season 1, when Season 2 did come out I never felt I wanted to watch it.

I watched this show with very low expectations, but it's actually really good. As always in these things, the bad guys are the best characters and get all the best lines. Percy is excellent, and his relationship with Amanda is played well.

Series one was great when it got going. Series two has been decent enough. I hope it gets a third, but I'm not holding my breath. Either this or Ringer (or both) look set to vanish. Which would be a shame.

I'm quite suprised Nikita does not have more fans. Action, badass women, badass guys, guns and even a little bot of a love story. Percy is the man.
