I might try it out but my expectations aren't too high, hopefully it'll be good

I've got my VCR set to record it, and have super-low expectations. Hopefully it'll be somewhat humorous with good action scenes.

Ex-cons hired by the cops who busted them to fight crime.
Sounds awfully like Thieves (or Three on WB before it....or hell a lot of shows) except with just chicks.

I'll give it a shot....but I really liked Thieves, so unless this show can deliver quickly I'll dump it.

This is what I was thinking. Thieves was really cool and balanced the male and female gratuitous silliness quite nicely. I would imagine the charisma of the characters will be the determining factor for this one. I'll be watching just in case.

Yes, yes it was. I'm hoping this doesn't have the MTV editting job the film did.

That horrible dialogue from the commericals has turned me off. I might catch a little bit of it, but I'm not expecting any witty conversation to take place.

When I see this, why do I keep thinking about "Fox Force Five" ... Uma's "Pilot" from Pulp Fiction ?

That was truly terrible. It was so inane I found myself looking forward to commercial breaks for intellectual stimulation to save me from mind rot.

I have to admit the very end got one laugh out of me. I was thinking it would take full frontal female nudity to get to me watch this again.

I am only 15 minutes into the show, and it's really a campy blend between "Son of a Beach" and "VIP", and just as interesting as I thought it would be...

It definately used self-deprecating humor on itself with all of the pauses and text on the screen to poke fun at their casting choices.

It is a "turn your brain off" type of spy caper comedy.

I did like D.D.

Good way to characterize it. Totally cheesy, but I liked it.

Not on a weekday ... not during the Fall ... but summertime, on a Saturday ... oh yeah.

Some of the jokes went too far and went past camp and into annoying, but for the most part it was good fun. The chicks are hot, and enough of the jokes made me chuckle to bring me back. I nearly pissed myself when they threw up the info of Josh Malina:

... Suspect #1 ...
... Bitter about running a TV talk show ...
... Looks like that guy from SportsNight ...

just to let you all know, that show only had 4.9 million viewers and finished 79th in the neilson ratings. it will go into syndication after 4 episodes. so dont be shocked if it suddenly disopears in 4 weeks.

just saw it tonight and all i've got to say is...you have GOT to be kidding me. this is bar none the worst show i have EVER seen. it was really quite sad to watch actually. all i can say is people in charge of getting the show on the air MUST have received some DAMN good sexual favors. i give this show 1 month TOPS.

Cool. Looks like 1 am Sunday for me as well. That will have to be added to my list of recordable shows.
