Agent X

It has more cheese than the brilliant 'Our Man Flint' movies which starred cool dude James Coburn. It has more plot holes than the TV series Batman.

(Watch the moving splat of blood on the white jacket. It has more life than the bored actors, moving from left to right and dancing a merry jig in it's quest for added camera time.)

It has the beautiful, classy and highly intelligent Sharon Stone... although I don't know how or why! She must have seen Calista Flockhart make an arse of herself on Supergirl and thought... I can be a much bigger arse than she can!

Let's face it, this madness was a long TV tribute to the Roger Corman Sci-Fi movies of the mid to late 50s.

It's as if the producers bought a job-lot of rejected scripts from other crap shows and decided to make a series out of them.

Remember Cop Rock on ABC in 1990? Yeah, well this is MUCH funnier than even that!

I was waiting a action season like this. First the pilot , Sharon and Geff did a superb performance. The plot is so real and very addictive. Sharon role as the vice president of America is very powerful and sensitive. So far she is has done a superb role relevant to her vast experience in acting. I am doing sure if Geff had acted before , but he also put a good show.Olga character is very sharp , skillful. She looks like she did her homework and her given role was wasn't easy too. Anyway the timing for the show was over 40 minutes which is fine and each scene a surprise element. Good going guys.All the best

John Case (Jeff Hephner) is a secret agent who works for the Vice President of the United States (Sharon Stone). This gives the President plausible deniability if his existence ever came to light, which is just how the job was designed back in the early days of the republic.

As the premise was described by producers and actors of the show, the series is supposed to be about an "American Bond". That's exactly how the show feels, though Case feels more Craig than Connery. The show jumps into the action as quickly as any show I have seen--no doubt wanting to grab an audience immediately. The makers of the show also wanted the show to be "big, fun" and "almost like a comic book", which means the astute viewer will suspend disbelief and sit back for the ride. And the line between good and evil will be clearly defined, though not without its occasional twist.

The first episodes are very satisfying, with plenty of action, great production values, and a storyline that involves a formidable Russian opponent named Olga (Olga Fonda).

Gerlad McRaney plays the part of Malcolm, the man who provides guidance and backup, the Alfred to Case's Batman.

As the show continues, hopefully they can keep the missions interesting and further develop the various characters that populate the world of John Case, Agent X.

To start, I'm not too sure what program the low reviewers are actually watching. I find Agent X great to watch, it's not hard to watch either which I find nice after a long day working but that's not to say its something to switch your brain off either! The story is fairly simple but it is not boring, every episode has Agent X trying to stop another bad guy/girl and you feel the story expanding and other people coming from the woodwork. The actors are all fun to watch and as for the chemistry, in theory they have just met each other!! You find yourself wanting to know more about the characters. I am enjoying this series and I really hope there is another one.

Im writing in support of Jeff Hephner.. Olga Fonda and Gerald McRaney.. they act just fine.. they come across as likable and watchable in the series.. i think we should give these actors a chance because they are not the problem..

the problem is Sharon Stone.. She overacts.. and if she is the executive producer i am not sure how much she was involved in the show turning out the way it did..

Do not get me wrong.. she may be a really nice lady in RL i do not know but commenting about the series i get this irksome feeling when watching the show that somehow its all about Sharon Stone herself and not really about Agent X.. which is a shame..

it also annoys me that a number of scenes that she is in there are those special filters or wotcha might call it to soften her age lines.. something feels off because its an action video for goodness sake and not some social event that we are trying to capture the moment of with a filtered photo ..

Sorry Agent X.. to give this series a chance you guys gotta decide if this show belongs to Agent X or is this just a vehicle for Stone to promote herself..
