At first glance, I thought this show was going to be one of those poorly produced crud-fests designed to sell cheap advertising and fill space that can’t even be sold to infomercials. I am happy to say I was wrong — very wrong.
While the show is “light drama,” it strikes chords of human emotion; characters’ motivations, while both clear and obvious, run deeper than fluff. Concepts like sacrifice, honor, duty, family, and friendship flow under the lighter and brighter dialogue and character interaction. Somehow, the show has a feel both as light as an “A-Team” and as serious as any drama. It’s Mitch Rapp at his most smart-aleck times. In the balance of light and heavy, it is a lot like a “Magnum, P.I.,” and the primary characters have a depth of interaction that approaches that earlier show’s level.
Watch one episode for the bright and colorful camera work, the sexy and scantily-clad scenery, and some action and interaction. Or, watch the season for all that plus some much deeper arcs and character development. Either way, I don’t think you will be disappointed unless you are looking for a documentary on espionage.

What can I say? At age 41 this is only the second TV series I’ve dug deep and spent good money on! (The first was the first year of Miami Vice on DVD.) I love the characters, multiple simultaneous plot interactions, and occassional goofiness in the middle of a serious situation.
And did I mention the Westin family in dysfunction? A million laughs with an occassional tear. Very well done guys, I may just show up the next time I’m in Miami to get autographs.
