She Spies (2002–2004)
SHE SPIES ROCKS AND DESERVES MORE POPULARITY
16 August 2004
I think the show is hot and creative. It's not another "Charle's Angeles" knock off for sure. It makes me ill when I read about other people comparing this show to "CHARLE'S ANGELS," just because they are 3 female spies. GET OVER THAT FEMALE STERIO TYPE. The "Charle's Angels" movies focused on a fun fill comedy more than anything, the fighting scenes where mostly unrealistic and they pretty much hung for jump lines had body doubles to impress those without a realistic state of thinking or children. But She Spies fighting scenes are more realistic with hard martial arts training to actually learn how to defend themselves (or at least make it look that way). If you want to compare that to "Charles Angels" consider this, imagine the choreography in CA's choagraphy, doesn't that remind you of a popular children's TV show: "POWER RANGERS?" Anyway, A lot of the inventions/gadgets the the She Spies use are somewhat unrealistic or seem waaaay to cool to ever have but it's television. The idea of 3 career felonists becoming Government Agency spies (w/ limited privileges) who are serving their sentences in this way, is a bit functional, especially since they all happen to look like they just come from a Playboy photoshoot. I like the punch lines, the scripts are moderately written, dialoge is pretty predictable and the idea of foreshadowing into future episodes isn't clear at all. In my city, the station that the show is shown on isn't a very popular station as far as exclusive or "hit show" programs because it previously was own by WB but was sold out to someone else. So of course its the show doesn't get much attention as it would if it was on NBC, WB, FOX etc. If the show ever made it to one of those major networks with a respectable prime time time slot I do admit the producers would have to get a little more creative as far as characters, scrips and plots. But still if you want a show that entertains you for a little bit of comedy and action it's a premium choice show.
