Just wondering if it's worth bothering with is all. Any input appreciated.

I watch it on occassion. Kinda opens the eyes a little on ways around our systems. Shows how to think outside the box. A little too much drama on occassion but I like it.

It's no 24, but better than alot of the crap on TV, I like it.

Touted as 'more realistic' but we have a self-doubting FBI agent who is debriefed alone and fails to convey useful intel during his debriefings, plus he is black, setting up the parallel in the viewer's minds - muslim=black=oppressed and that's why they turn to..

When they did the dry run for a CBRN type attack on a mall - someone sent me the DVDs - they lost me.

I watched the whole thing and really liked it, the character development was great. YMMV
