Drive-by Watch: Jake 2.0
May. 31st, 2007 10:36 pmI'm currently trying this show out, since a lot of people I know seemed to like it: It's a somewhat fluffy spy show centered around a former tech guy who becomes Super Geek after he gets accidentally infected with nanoids. The main character is played by Christopher Gorham, whom viewers of Ugly Betty will know as Betty's nerdily sweet love Henry; the rest of the cast is made up of actors I've never heard of before or since, playing a tough NSA agent, an even tougher director, a geeky doctor/future love-interest who is more annoying than cute, and the crush from Henry's college days, who has either a really confusingly written storyline, or is some sort of spy herself, respectively. So far, I can see why people like it, but it utterly fails to enthrall me in any way, so I can't say if I'll give the whole run a chance. Can anyone give me unspoilered feedback whether it gets a little more exciting after the first few episodes?
