Sleeeper Cell - Showtime Series (1 Viewer)

The nine part Showtime series has gotten really good reviews - "24" like with less belief suspension required. Also no commercials and "R" rated themes.

Caught Episode 1 and was impressed. Takes more time to get into than network time-forced TV, but good acting and build up. Also like they do 4 new episodes a week with repeats later in week.

The first four episodes were quite enjoyable.

Fantastic stuff. Good, solid writing and a great general plot and characters. I've added it to the TiVO, and will definitely follow it

Well I don't have Showtime, and I'm not inclined to give them any money after the cancellation of Dead Like Me, but I'll definitely check this out on DVD.

Great finale. Enjoyed the show form beginning to end.

Loved it!

Looks like a DVD in March and a rerun in mid January. Will miss it and look forward to new 24 and The Shield. But this series was a pleasant break from the commercial sliced, neat and tidy series which plague most TV fare.
