Rogue

If you can just grin and bear the first season, it's worth it. Forget Thandie Newton's charachter, she's duller than dishwater and stupid with it, so just focus on Marty and Ethan and you'll enjoy it.

One thing is for sure, you just can't rate this with a 6 or a 7. It's definately a 9, maybe a 10 for me. And it sure is worth your time to watch all episodes back to back. Ethan Kelly makes everything look so simple from the moment he appears in the series, but without being the classic "i am the best and i can't be killed" american hero way. Cole Hauser at his top!!!

Starting off with a very shaky couple-three episodes (to the point you're seriously questioning why you are still in the chair).. but the initially very dubious acting settles down in the middle and towards the end of season one. But then the way they wrap up the storyline finale in episode ten is just so awkwardly amateurish, it's almost like they had no clue as how to end it. Not that there was an absence of previous implausibles (beginning with a ninety-pound Newton as an undercover cop), but nothing close to the head-shakers finishing S1. Then the setup and bridge between S1 and S2 takes an excruciating four full episodes. And up till that point the ensemble of new characters (including the lead actor) can't adequately carry any of those episodes. Honestly, they're all pretty boring..lacking a solid storyline, or any truly interesting characters (good or bad) for the audience to get into. They just come off as near four hours of fill to get back to the main story...(which once again turns out to be very thin). Also it's another in a long list of shows that willingly insult the intelligence of its' audience by readily feeding it premises that are not believable, or at best exceptionally simple-minded. Season one was somewhat effective, but the second is just a mess...and so poorly written, it just ultimately winds up being bizarrely stupid. The third season once again lacks interest.. and for many the end of the series comes near the midpoint (S3E4)..from that point onward there's little incentive to continue... minus a solid script, they're mostly void of any merit. There are lots of shows deserving second and more seasons.. unfortunately this is nowhere near one of them.

This show is intelligent. It develops over time. Normally, I can sort out after 2 episodes just how it will end. Not this time. In general I assume these types of shows plan for season 1 and dig themselves an impossible hole to dig out of.

This show went the smart way and just did it right from the beginning - but you have to stick with it. Too bad the morons of the world gave it a 6. I would have said 8 but slapped a 9 on it to try balance out the idiots. This show is simply well done.

Granted a second season. I will watch, for sure. No idea where it will go. And that is a good thing! Hope for a 3rd!

I've watched tons of series, and IMO I don't watch terrible shows. I stay away from network shows for the most part, and mainly only watch cable and streaming series nowadays. I somehow happened to find out about this show a few years ago and at the time it had a rating of about a 6.9. I like Thandie Newton as an actress and because the description seemed up my alley I decided to watch the first episode despite the mixed reviews. I never watch shows rated below a 7.5, never. I liked it immediately, and watched it to the end. It transitioned well to Cole Hauser, and was still pretty good. This show is definitely not a 6.9 for it's genre. The writing, acting, camera work for the most part is very good. Even if the budget wasn't great, it doesn't show. I enjoyed this show as much as 4 Blocks, Condor, Zero Zero Zero, and other shows with higher ratings. I would give it a try if you can still find it, as I believe it was a DirecTV show.
