LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH


I just finished watching the last episode. I was blown away. I even cried. I actually think it was a perfect ending. I found it completely satisfying. I had no idea how they could end it--I love that Michael said Adam won't always need him. Nikita needed to do what she promised her father--she was the only one to do what Section was originally designed for. What I love about the ending is that it gave them hope. With a love like theirs, the years won't mean a thing and we know they'll be reunited. I thought it was a wonderful love story.

I didn't know about this show--I vaguely remember hearing about it. Somehow when I was looking for a show to watch online, I came across Nikita with Maggie Q. I watched multiple episodes every night and was totally hooked and disappointed when it was over. I loved it. When I saw there was another Nikita series, I thought I'd try it, thinking it couldn't be as good. After watching nothing but La Femme Nikia every night, I now see how superior it is to the new version. I don't even think one can compare them. LFN is leaps and bounds better. Peta Wilson was so great--I had never seen or heard of her. I also loved Roy Dupuis. I purposely didn't look them up because I was afraid if I did I'd see these two beautiful people all these later and they would look awful, but they both look great. Roy has matured into an even more handsome man.

Peta Wilson was so great in this role. She is so lovely and such a great actress. I can't believe it's over! I was totally consumed by it. Now I'll watch the film. I don't know how I missed this show when it aired! It is the best! I could go on and on....!

I liked this show a lot also, especially loved Peta Wilson.

I love this show too..Peta Wilson was believably vulnerable but capably skilled at the same time..Michael was an ongoing mystery unraveling as one minute a cold and calculating manipulator and the next a protector of Nikita. Their chemistry sizzles beyond anything else I've ever seen on tv. It's complicated and nuanced.
There was lots of ambiguity with all the characters making them all ring more true than many other similar tv shows....although Section itself was frighteningly brutal.

The music is probably why we don't see it more on streaming sites..It had a lot of European pop, funk and new wave that served the tone of the show very well but might make it difficult to get distribution rights.
