My Take on the Blu-Ray
I have been a fan of Claire Danes for some time, but have not seen her in much lately, so I was intrigued to see how she would do as a CIA agent, as it is not her normal role that she has played in the past. She did an amazing job in her role, and I also have to say that I loved to see Mandy Patinkin again as he always does an amazing job in any role that he takes on and in his guest role he definitely lived up to this as well.

I was quite impressed with the season and will look forward to the next season, as this one left me anxious to find out what will happen next. The series is full of action, suspense and drama, a great combination in my perspective.

If you like a series that is full of intense, edge of your seat action, as well as strong acting and characters, this is definitely the series for you!
