I think this season has already surpassed last season. So much awesome shit so far.
for Scott getting some tail w/in the first few minutes of the show.
Crazy they killed off Rebecca, but I love that this show does that.
Loved Scott fucking with the fat guy repeatedly.
The shootout at the stock exchange thing was insane.
Interesting that they made the guy they were chasing a CIA operative.
I wonder what kind of terror attack they plan. When they say "West" I assume it's the US they plan on attacking.

Damn, I'm literally on the edge of my seat. Season 3 so far is kicking season 2's ass.
I literally yelled Oh Shit!! After Rebecca was shot and subsequently killed off. Totally not expected. This is one of the few shows that has the balls to kill off significant characters.
That heist sequence was pretty intense. Section 20 is pretty damn ruthless. Guess those Colombian Police were collateral damage.
On the plus side, Scott is 2 for 2. Too bad he has to find a new lady friend now. We'll see what happens in episode 3.
The sequence where Scott and Stonebridge had to make a life or death decision on Kamali was really intense. They would have been dead meat against Gomez and his men. First, I thought they fucked up trusting him.
at Scott fucking with Fatty in the vault and then shooting him in the head after Kamali freed them.
Dalton was once again pretty badass. Glad to see Richmond getting some action too. at her and Martinez pretending to be lesbos to buzz off those guards.

That one-shot sequence during the shootout was pretty bad ass!
I agree that these two episodes were better then the entire second season.

One thing that's helped the show so far in season 3 is they are giving it a much larger international scale.
So far, they have been in Northern California, Bogota, Colombia and Beirut Lebanon. (I know it's filmed in South Africa) And later it will move to Eastern Europe.
80-90% of season 2 took place in South Africa. I think the location just got kind of dry. You need Stonebridge and Scott being badasses around the world.
Even though Rhona Mitra is on the cast of "The Last Ship" on TNT, I hope she survives the season and can do both shows if need be. Dalton has been great so far.

Gotta say she's really improved her gun handling. The way she held a gun last season bugged the hell out of me.

I don't like that they killed Rebecca. Not just because she was hot, but the dude just pulls right up and immediately gets a head-shot on her? Bullshit.
