    Catch a great action flick every week - this is not your average TV show

    Human Target is a creative action adventure with quick wit and intelligence. Whether you're into the hard-hitting, fast pace of a big screen action flick, the complex intrigue of a spy novel, or the kind of wry humor that makes you feel like you're sharing an inside joke, this show is for you.

    Each episode is an action-packed adventure capable of standing on it's own, out of sequence and separate from the others. Yet, there are deeper layers to be explored, with hints of sub-plots intertwining though each installment, piquing your curiosity and leaving you wanting more.

    Human Target is one of the best new shows in years. It even raises the bar with a great opening sequence created in a more cinematic style, invoking images of Bond, Bourne, and others like them.

    Spread the word. Don't let this one get away.

    BRING THIS TV SERIES BACK!!!

    Hot women, chivalry, actors who know how to fight and actors who know how to act. This outstanding, well choreographed, action packed, captivating, drama/romaction TV series is well produced and of course even more well thought out. The writers in this TV series took the time to create a story that keeps the audience engaged throughout each episode; you will never be bored on any given episode, this is a promise. It takes a the action from Burn Notice, John Wick, The Bourne Series, and blends them with the drama from Suits. You might ask how the hell they did it but they did it! Unfortunately the series has ended (not clear on the reason why but all they said was low viewership).

    I applaud Mark Valley, Jackie E. Haley, Chi McBride, Indira Varma and Janet Montgomery for putting forth the amazing efforts they did to produce such astounding characters with enriched history and the way how each character is displayed it seems as though they all just clicked and harmonized in acting very well. This cast of actors was done right. Hoping they bring this amazing TV series back with, hopefully, the same amazing actors and actresses.

    Granted yes this is a comic based TV series to which loosely follows the comic book series. However I believe the story line portrayed compensates and speaks for itself. It's a series you do not want to miss out on. I promise you you will not be disappointed. Sub-par with Game of Thrones, on par with John Wick.

    Silly, enjoyable fun.

    After seeing terrific shows such as Life and The Unit cancelled, it's nice to find something to fill the void. Human Target does this effectively, creating a show that doesn't take itself too seriously - it's like watching a comic come to life.

    Over-the-top fights, grin-inducing action sequences and the banter between Mark Valley et al (including some fantastic guest stars) will keep you smiling through the episodes' "villain of the week" plots. Hopefully the writers will make more of the arcs in the future, which would add a little depth to a show that's already hugely entertaining - which, if you're anything like me, is just what you need after coming home from work. Recommended.

    action, heart and sentimental

    this show is a distilled Indiana Jones kind of adventure, except where indie has a dark past. I've been watching all season, and from the first, it was fun and easy to watch--light fluff that does the trick when you need down time. But as the season progressed and you got a better feel for the characters, you got drawn into the old school adventure romance of it--transient heroes for those in need. redemption of the irredeemable. the scalawags you root for. there is a very archetypal sense to our cavalier protagonists, and it hearkens back to the kind of heroes i remember growing up, who were themselves retrofits of 30's heroes. I think this was very intended, even down to the motifs in the scoring. It's interesting to reject the modern sense of antihero, by mythologizing people who should be antiheroes but are not--its a classic idea that never gets tired--the noble person born out of sin. or maybe its just manipulative pablum. hey, if you're gonna watch television. . .

    The finale paid off too, I really hope this series gets renewed.

    Amazing series, just sad to see it not continue

    I started to watch this show not too long ago, and I have to say, I was surprised I haven't seen it sooner. A very good action series with a bit of comedy and depth to the characters. As you get further into the series, the characters' background starts to get more interesting. Oh and for those that like that bit of romance, it's in here too.

    My favorite characters so far would have to be Guerrero and Chance. Just great to see two characters with such different personalities, working together and showing such loyalty to one another. Each episode just pulls you in, and making you want more, it's just too bad they're cancelling the series because "lack of viewers".

    It's a top notch action series, that should be continued. I haven't seen a series like this in awhile with this kind of depth, story, action, and acting. I hope it somehow gets renewed, because honestly this is a really good show.

    • Trivia
      In the comics, the Human Target's modus operandi is to use realistic life masks to disguise himself as the target. This aspect of the character was not used in the show due to budget constraints.
