    Even for an idiot (like me), this show is unbearable to watch. It's okay to use as a sleeping pill but otherwise don't waste/invest your time, it will be cancelled and no-one will ever remember it existed. Enough said already ... go watch something like Homeland instead.

    I gave it a chance.. and what a disappointment! A big waste of (once really) good talent. Imagine Homeland being remade by Disney.. or something along those lines. NEXT!

    A hilariously awful effort that wastes a sterling cast amid flag waving, fist pumping and a soup of cliches from National Treasure, Madam Secretary and a bag of low budget thrillers. Hard to look away though.

    After only 5min it is clear that this is a cheaply executed show, made with cliche scene made without effort in quality with no complexity, where every details are spoon-feed to the viewer as if the "target-IQ" was too low to do otherwise.

    1st scene : (Meaning: main character as nothing to lose) - For ever torture cliche - The good old Neck Breaking when handcuffed in a cell cliiche!

    1st scene : (Meaning: main character as nothing to lose)
    - For ever torture cliche
    - The good old Neck Breaking when handcuffed in a cell cliiche!
    - All pointless as he was getting rescued anyways

    2nd Scene (1st mission, agent is indeed super skilled)
    - Double dip the syringe, remind us of it's presence mid fight and use as last resort in a fight (why not use 12 syringe!@#$)
    - Kill a guy, who, non-only resurrect but has wound switching side mid fight (first episode of the show!@#$%^)
    - Etc
    - Etc

    So the question with a cheap-show is what's the cool features that will allow me to look pass the errors and 60IQ reminders.

    Sharron Stone... (gimme a brake, "Robin Wright did it!")

    This show may not be the greatest that's ever graced the screens, but so far up to episode four of the first season it is one of the first ones that I go to to watch without delay. It's interesting, there's enough to keep you guessing and I enjoy this type of show. May not be for everyone, but as it makes me look forward to it every week, it gets a perfect 10.

    The first episode is a little silly. But in episode two and three, the series really picks up. I love Agent X's dry, sarcastic humor. The action scenes and plots are also really good now. Hopefully, people didn't quit watching after the first episode and give the series a chance.

    I have watched every show to date, and I find it quite enjoyable despite overacting of Sharon Stone, the continuity flaws, a coincidental occurrences that defy credulity. SPOILER ALERT: If Agent X is supposed to be the best spy available in the country then why does he allow his captive terrorist to have an unrecorded conversation with a co-conspirator while locked in a maximum securityI have watched every show to date, and I find it quite enjoyable despite overacting of Sharon Stone, the continuity flaws, a coincidental occurrences that defy credulity. SPOILER ALERT: If Agent X is supposed to be the best spy available in the country then why does he allow his captive terrorist to have an unrecorded conversation with a co-conspirator while locked in a maximum security facility (as happens with former X agent Volker in episode 8?) I tend to watch most television with a suspended view of reality, so this show is still fun, but I won't shed too many tears when/if it is canceled. Expand

    I want to sue the show's producers for the time I wasted watching this show. This show is HORRIBLE!!! Block it from your kids; it may lower their IQ.

    The show doesn’t cover new ground, but it gets a passing grade for being competent within the overly familiar territory of the spy genre.

    Bursts of violence aside, Agent X doesn’t work well as an action thriller. And while watching it for comedy, intentional or not, is more enjoyable, that’s probably no reason to tune in every week.

    It is difficult to understate the breathtaking and apparently straight-faced derangement of Agent X.
