I'm bity embarassed starting this thread, but here we go :)

Most of the time, I think the show is silly, but I just like Nikita, Michael and Alex as characters. Plus, Melinda Clarke and Xander Berkely, how could anyone not watch it? :)

The ending of echoes left me speechless. Then I got furious when I found out the next eppy is in April. Grrrrrrrr.

Dax, you'd be happy to hear that Maggie Q has really grown on me and I like her a lot now :)

I am four behind, need to see 13-16. Having 'stacked up' (well, on-line, since I can't ever dvr it with two other shows on Thursday at 9 pm), and feeling the 'stress' of having to remember to watch them (cw.com hosts the last six episodes, but then they disappear), I had some 'Oh, I can probably drop this silly show' thoughts, but... I enjoyed marathoning the last seven in a short span... it's a fun show. It's very Alias-like. You don't BELIEVE a minute of it, but the execution of it is well-done. The performances are good.

OMG I am not the only one who watches this show. I think it is really a lot of fun. :) The cliffhanger was crazy.

LOL at closet fans.

Dax, finish it soon, so you can discuss it with us.

I'm glad I'm not the only one watching as I find it quite silly but cannot resist, my guilty pleasure this year. I cannot watch Pretty little liars as it annoys the hell out of me, so I have Nikita now :)

Yes please finish it soon so we can discuss it. This hiatus until April 7th or so is crazy. I have no idea why I like this show so much. It is the only new series I have started and continued to watch this 2010-2011 television season.

Before Dax catches up, are we all Mikita shiipers or any Alex / Michael fans?

I'm all for Mikita and I see Alex and Michael more like siblings, no sexual tension there.

But then we have the other rogue spy and the government guy in the mix.

Did you watch the old Nikita with Peta WIlson?

I never really watched the USA series, though I was aware of it. I like Michael/Nikita over Alex/Michael. One of my issues with Alex/Michael is they made her 19 years old, and it was established that Michael lost a wife and a child, and this child if she had lived would be extremely close in age to Alex. So it would be a little strange, says the person who has shipped couples of this sort for years, but for some reason on this show I don't like it.

I'm neither for nor against either potential couple. If I'm Michael, obviously I'm going to be strongly attracted to both ladies...

Didn't watch the USA series. Love the original movie, and I remember liking the Bridget Fonda version, too.

I used to watch the previous show a bit, it was different.

We had all the characters we have here - Michael, Nikita, Amanda, the bos, Burghoff(?) and one more. But we follow Nikita from the beginning in the Division, or Section. She jsut wants to get out. Not even sure how it ended.

Anyway, BL I agree, Michael is too much of a father or really older brother figure to me when it comes to Alex. I think he cares about her a great deal because she reminds him of Nikita and he wants to protect her. But I don't see him attacted to her or jealous.

Dax, are you with us?

You've had plenty of time this week to catch up :)

Promo for 117, I'd call it non-spoilerish as I cannot figure out anything from it, it's too fast. Of course, it doesn't address the cliffhanger at all http://www.spoilertv.com/2011/03/nikita-episode-117-covenants-promo.html

Not yet, no.

Wouldn't say I've had 'plenty' of time...

(And working on catching up on Big Love first).

Sadly, you have plenty of time to catch up as the next eppy is in April. I'm more annoyed about this than the waiting for GA and I adore GA.

I'm never really annoyed by anything I watch 'going away' for a little bit any more, as I always have a backlog to catch up on...

Dax I understand that. I was surprised I was annoyed by the long hiatus. A month doesn't bother me, more than that tends to in the middle of a season.

Hitting the 16/22 mark by the end of February... yeah. Parenthood is at 18...

Is it the ratings talk? I still don't understand the system, I'm a tragic. I only operate with good and bad ratings, or high and low :)

No, not ratings. I was saying how many shows they've aired... seeing how many are left, and knowing that most shows try to end in or around May, you can gauge how much of a 'break' we have to have in March/April...

Did you see the newest promo?

http://www.youtube.com/user/cwtelevision?blend=1&ob=4#p/c/1/olrMckvDu3g

I'm sure I will be disappointed nd it won't turn out the way it looks like here.

I just watched #13 yesterday, only three behind now... (and the new one this week is one of those ever-so-rare can-actually-capture-on-the-dvr shows).

Happy to hear that. Now, you just have to see the rest to catch up with us.

I was so busy for two weeks that it caught me by surprise that the new eppy's coming this week. It felt like it would never come :)

Some people saw the latest episode that has yet to air at a convention over last weekend. The spoilers made me drool. :)

So looking forward to this show being back on the air.

Nothing shallow about that. It was extremely good. I don't want to go into anything else because Dax is still behind a few episodes.

Still, I rolled my eyes a lot, but I prefer Nikita to Covert Affairs in this department.
