Undercovers : Season 1
New series from JJ, who also directed the pilot.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underco...28TV_series%29
Airs Wednesdays on NBC.
Not spectacular, but definitely enjoyable.

I watched it yesterday, I thought it was pretty good for a pilot.

Like Chuck but without the intersect or the humour... Will give it a few more episodes but we're not hopeful

Re: Undercovers (new J. J. Abrams spy drama) [season 1]
Yeah, given the crowded schedule I won't be investing time in this if there's no "hook" for me after a couple of episodes.
It's not as clever as Burn Notice, nor as funny as Chuck, and plus seems to have no overall arc. I think pretty much everything I watch has an arc, except for Castle, which doesn't need one 'cos of the cast & characters (without which it would just be another police procedural).

Much prefer Covert Affairs at this point in time though it has just finished the season

The second episode was alright I thought, I reckon I'll keep checking it out. I wanna know more about why they were really hired again.

Re: Undercovers (new J. J. Abrams spy drama) [season 1]
Yeah, I'll give it a bit longer. If it was on any other night I wouldn't bother though, but there's nothing to watch on a Thursday.
Don't see why they were used this week, though. Why weren't normal agents used instead?
