  1. The show itself, however, does much of its best work in the shadows, where nothing is that clear.
  2. 80
    In Season 2, the show, brought back by fans who vociferously protested its cancellation, has become more topical and even more intriguing.

    The action is fast-paced, the plotting dense, if often simplistic, and the tension generally sustained, as long as you don't overthink the improbabilities of the cover-up over who's responsible for the bomb attacks.

    Great show, great writing, great characters..too bad CBS was so shortsighted in cancelling it, but you can't just blame them, rather blame the generally brain dead American populace who would rather watch "So you think your monkey can dance with the stars" than anything intelligent. Expand
