Covert Affairs aka Alias Rip Off?

The last two weeks, I have caught both episodes of Covert Affairs, USA Networks newest show. As I have watched both episodes, I have noticed a startling resemblance to the older (but better written by J.J. Abrams) show Alias. Hot young post collegiate takes job working for CIA in ridiculously skimpy and provocative clothing. At least Alias had a better plot line then “the boyfriend is a bad guy and let’s use the main character as bait to catch him”. Lame. This show is maybe a 2 on a scale of 5. And while we are at it, I have yet to see a person play a blind person worse than Christopher Gorham! He ovedoes it not by an inch, but by a mile! He is quite possibly the worst person playing a blind man ever! And considering how many movies and tv shows I have watched, that is pretty bad!

Let me know what you think and if you like it, please tell me why (nicely please!), maybe you can change my mind, we’ll see. As for now, I will watch it when I am having a hard time sleeping, to help put me to sleep that is!
