    I think the show is good, but it could be so much better. I feel they are trying to keep it almost as a family show, when it would be better if it were a bit darker.

    There is plenty of room for improvement and I think the show is still trying to figure out if it wants to be more like Alias or more like Castle. Perhaps it can find a happy middle to which I would be fine with and for now, it's scratching a semi-serious itch for something spy like.

    Whiskey Cavalier has an appealingly daft streak of sophomoric loopiness.

    As sleek as it is silly, Whiskey goes down smoothly if pure escapism is your tonic of choice. [4-17 Mar 2019, p.11]

    Foley, Cohan and the supporting cast members need not unduly worry whether their adventures are all that plausible. What matters is whether this show is fun to watch regardless. Which it is.
