Agent Coulson

So title of the show has been changed to American Odyssey.

A really enjoyable pilot with an intriguing plot though I will say I think they tried to put to much into the pilot but you can't beat a good government conspiracy & corporate espionage story.

It also has Anna Friel who I think is on top form.

Frank O. Pinion

"American" Odyssey, and you can't get much more American than Anna Friel.

bit silly, written by a guy from 30 something http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005022/

Agent Coulson

This is now being added to Netflix Canada weekly if anyone is watching it.

Have this lined up on Hulu to watch, interestingly enough but Hulu is offering an extended cut of the pilot and some subsequent episodes.

so bob had his conspiracy and chickened out, and the occupy group are cheering on a soldier, that kid is annoying

It's pretty good so far. I'm two episodes in. I'm hoping it turns into a very good show rather than something that fails to live up to early expectations. Anna Friel is doing a great job!

Frank O. Pinion

It got an 0.8 rating for its second episodes, and only 4 millions viewers. It is certain to be cancelled.

Agent Coulson

I have to say I am really enjoying this.

Mr E

Watched the first 5 over the last 3 days. This is a cracking good show.

Starts on RTE 2 at 9.35pm on Friday 5th June

The Black Oil

Missed it last night and it's not on RTE Player.

Mc Love

Latest episode aired last Sunday, nice little twist in it!

Same here,Sky + the first four episodes that were on RTE,have to to say its a good show.

Mr E

Finale is next Sunday in the States. I wonder if they'll wrap it all up? Definitely comes across as a one season show.

Mr E

Great finale, but the story is incomplete. The airport scene was a good payoff, though...

Agent Coulson

I enjoyed the season as a whole.

If it gets renewed for a second season there is a really interesting story to be told and that is what happens to people who blow the whistle.

Just read that this has been cancelled and there won't be a second season. Disappointed as was just about to start getting into this series

Mc Love

ah ffs!? Really?

Sideshow Mark

Two episodes in and I'm bailing. I'm all for the next 24/Homeland, but this isn't it.

I don't get the politics at all, references to Occupy and al-Qaeda are very dated already, and I don't understand why the U.S. army were in Mali. It's an NBC show which sometimes uses NBC news and sometimes a fictional news channel, it doesn't make sense. It also looked very cheap.

I'd live with these little niggles, but I found the three leads not very likeable.

Unfortunately yes it has been cancelled and will finish with just this season 1.
