Rogue

This show is intelligent. It develops over time. Normally, I can sort out after 2 episodes just how it will end. Not this time. In general I assume these types of shows plan for season 1 and dig themselves an impossible hole to dig out of.

This show went the smart way and just did it right from the beginning - but you have to stick with it. Too bad the morons of the world gave it a 6. I would have said 8 but slapped a 9 on it to try balance out the idiots. This show is simply well done.

Granted a second season. I will watch, for sure. No idea where it will go. And that is a good thing! Hope for a 3rd!

If you can just grin and bear the first season, it's worth it. Forget Thandie Newton's charachter, she's duller than dishwater and stupid with it, so just focus on Marty and Ethan and you'll enjoy it.

I don't usually get into TV shows but I watched the first episode and I was hooked. I don't normally watch much TV but I watched all 10 episodes in two days! 7 the first day and the other 3 the following morning!! It was fantastic. The twists and turns keep you wondering who did what! I fully recommend this show to anyone that likes lots of action and gut wrenching plots. The actors are superb and very believable. You can feel the tension! Grace/Jackie is torn between two worlds as she plays each person. Grace when she is a police detective and Jackie when she is undercover. Jimmy, the crime boss runs his crew with compassion and fairness. Alec, the black sheep of the family trying to win his fathers love. Max, the boy wonder. So full of education but no heart! I'm hoping they bring out another season!

I'm perplexed as to why people don't like this show more. I'm not going to describe the show in details, because there's an synopsis of the show here at IMDb. I will tell you, however, that the acting is excellent, especially from lead actors Thandie Newton and Marton Csokas. The show is compelling and engaging and isn't nearly as slow-paced as some reviewers suggest. Its pacing is actually rather brisk when compared with some other shows I've watched over the last handful of years, such as The Wire and The Killing. It also doesn't shy away from sex or violence. Perhaps the body count isn't high enough to appease today's audience...I'm not sure, but the idea that patience is lacking these days doesn't seem far fetched in the light of the fact that many people talk about The Avengers being the greatest film of all time...with a straight face. For the record, I actually got a kick out of The Avengers... Anyway, for the more enlightened viewer who's looking for an entertaining show that keeps you guessing what's coming next (without the use of cheap plots twists and run-of-the-mill storytelling), look no further. I'm fond of many popular series such as Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, BoardWalk Empire, and Dexter, and I can honestly stated that this one is worth watching.

Based on the first episode I would have agreed with most of the other comments. I watched the second episode and then the third and now I'm hooked. The acting seemed weak at first and you wondered where it was going and if it ever would, it lacked something. The plot almost explodes in the 2nd & 3rd episode. Grace was really bad and I think she still struggles with her character at times. Rogue's plot is similar to Red Widow, woman with a family gets involved in the biggest drug lord in towns business. Bottom line is I don't particularly care where its filmed or what nationality the actors are as long as I'm entertained. I find Rogue very entertaining.
