Michael Weston is a likable character that reminds me of James Rockford, from one of my all-time favorite series, The Rockford Files. BUT...if they writers aren't careful, they are going to ruin a show that has great potential of becoming a true classic.

Mediocre

The acting is not great, it starts off as a pointless series with no premise, but redeems itself towards the end of the first season and makes season 2 worth giving another chance.

Superb
"Personal favorite"
Michael Westen is a former spy that was fired or "burned". Now, he uses his spy skills to act like a private eye and help people in situations they can't go to the cops with while also dodging people sent to kill him.
