His Friday must-watch

Guilty pleasure alert! My must watch for Friday is the season premiere of Nikita (CW, 8/7c). I'll admit, when this show started last year I was skeptical, but the minute I started diving in I was hooked. This season promises to be even better.

Michael (Shane West) and Nikita (Maggie Q) on the hunt to take down Division together, romance re-kindled? What happens to Division with Amanda (Melinda Clarke of Julie Cooper "O.C." fame) at the helm? And how does Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) deal with her quest for revenge against her former mentor? Seriously, I can't wait to find out.

The move to Friday night makes me nervous, but the CW will show basically anything so I'm hoping Nikita is here to stay. Division needs to pay.

  1. Oh, Nikita, what can I say about you? Nothing, really. Much like Him, I was skeptical when this show started and assumed it would be canceled faster than you can say the female lead's last name. But unlike every other show I think is going to get canceled but watch anyway, I passed on this one. And not only did it make it through its first season, it's back for another one. So what's a TV lover with a full DVR to do?

    Well, I did like Shane West in A Walk to Remember - like a million years ago. And Melinda Clarke wasn't my least favorite character on The O.C. Plus, I do get an Alias-ish vibe from the previews, and that was one of my favorite shows of all time.

    So, my verdict? I really miss Jennifer Garner's Sydney Bristow. She needs to get back on TV asap. But as far as Nikita, I think I'll wait to see if it makes it to season three.
