Whiskey Cavalier

When I first saw previews for this show, I was thinking it probably wouldn't work; as it seemed a bit cheesy, gimmicky and too lighthearted. I love Laura Cohan from the Walking Dead, so I looked forward to seeing what she could do outside of the WD format. I don't remember seeing Scott Foley in anything, but discovered he mixes the lighthearted with the deadly serious seamlessly. As a team, they are perfect; like Mr. and Mrs James Bond, with a humorous element. They are both very physical characters, and they pull it off with the same martial arts-type zeal of actors in any serious crime drama. They are sexy, funny, smart, and compelling. The other characters are equally as interesting; their parts well acted - and they all mesh into a very entertaining show. A show I look forward to watching every week. I notice the ratings here for the show are high overall, as well as for each episode. Why is the show being cancelled? I'm hoping another network, or perhaps Netflix will pick it up.

This was never intended to be Jason Bourne, so just relax and enjoy it for what it is: a great mix of drama, comedy and action. The acting is great, the cast meshes really well, and the writing is clever.

Yes, the formula is old, but that's becasue it works. There's a drier humor here that works, I'm looking forward to the second episode.

CIA joins forces with the FBI and heaps of gadgets.

This is an easy watching show with some high end sets and amusing. Almost like a James Bond movie on a lower budget.

My wife and I really enjoy this and are so glad we stumbled across it.

With so much fake reality TV online, it's nice to just enjoy a TV show.

If you were tuning in to get another FBI or Quantico, you'll be disappointed. The show doesn't take itself that seriously. But that's ok. They don't intend to. While there is action and adventure, this show is built on the unique personalities of the characters. Scott Foley is charming, funny and believable. No stranger to action, he leans in to the better side of humanity. Lauren Cohen is the exact opposite. She thinks the worst, expects the worst and goes in hard. Unlike her role in the Walking Dead, Lauren channels the "tough as nails CIA feel-nothing Clint Eastwood" vibe. When the two interact, it creates an enjoyable tension. And there is always a little action to satisfy the adrenaline need. This show is fast becoming one of my top 3. Highly recommend you tune in.
