Leanne Blundell I agree, because when shows choose people that are "almost right" for the role, the show winds up not sticking or making it. I could not imagine anyone else playing any of those three roles, the chemistry would be all off and it wouldn't be as epic. We've seen plenty of examples of shows that are pretty entertaining and have great potential but fail because they didn't weed out the auditions quite right. It's pretty obvious that sometimes things are meant to be by how perfect they turn out.

It's uncanny the way that man can go from superspy Michael Weston to greasy hick Homer (boat repo episode with Virgil, the dirty cops and the Jamacans) in literally less than five seconds and make them both utterly believable. Quite the chameleon, that fellow. This role truly let his many talents shine their brightest.

The cast for this show was spot on: chemistry, humor, action, romance, drama,stunt scenes and finally a woman who wasn't portrayed as a helpless bimbo in distress and who was feminine yet could kick ass!!! It was also refreshing to have a guy actually like a woman who challenged and intrigued him.

Yes and it's also refreshing to see a badass, competent and wickedly smart male lead who has the respect of his woman and she liked that he challenged her as well.

He’s hands down got more flair and charisma than Ryan Reynolds. He’s got ten times the potential for heart-ripping performances than Benedict and David Tennant combined. This man is the most versatile, impressive, awesome, nice, and all around just GOOD actor in history. Change my mind.

I know how you feel, but at the same time, it's good that we were dignified with a conclusion. We'd all be a very different kind of sad if it had turned into some American live-action equivalent of that dead horse called Dragonball. But at the same time, it could go on forever in a good way if it was just about the side jobs. Then it might be some kind of mess without a main story arch. Alas, we will never know...
