That's me, Jake Foley. I'm in tech support. My security clearance is low... very low. Then one day it all changed. I can do things I never dreamed of. I've been ugpraded, I have these powers. Life just got real interesting,...

Jake Foley was an ordinary guy until a freak accident turned him into the world's first computer-enhanced man. Millions of microscopic computers interface with his biochemistry and make him stronger and faster, able to see and hear further then normal man. They give him the power to control technology with his brain. Jake Foley – America's secret weapon. He takes on missions no ordinary agent can perform. He is the ultimate human upgrade.

When Jake's newfound abilities are discovered, the National Security Agency places him at the center of a new Special Ops team. But once he is thrust into his new role as a secret agent, Jake is forced to juggle his two lives as a superhero and a regular, twenty-something guy looking to enjoy life and find love.less «

  I swear, if Chuck gets picked up for a whole season...or last longer than 16 episodes, I am going to petition someone to resurrect Jake 2.0.   The entire cast isn't doing anything including Marina Black, who mysteriously disappeared half way through the run.  I think Jake 2.0 was a better concieved, better acted, and better written show.  Additionally, Christopher Gorham is a much more appealing male lead than Zachary Levi who plays a Stanford-educated nerd as a 12 year old who has discovered girls for the first time...pathetic! We can just steal Gorham from Ugly Betty and revive this one-season wonder!less «

  Bottom line ... very good show and quite a good cast.
  Definetley ahead of it's time. hide « show »

  The show was ahead of it time with every single episode. It had a great cast, it was full with relatively unknown actors at that time all very promising though. The premise is great, nerdy geeky tech suport guy who always dreamed of mooving up gets his chance when a freak accident involving nanotechnology gives him enhanced abilities.
  It's funny how this wasn't picked up as a regular series and "Chuck" was since it's basicly the same thing.
  The characters were well writen, there was place for expansion, it had, action, sci fi, and comic relief all in one great show.
  You can see the main character and the actor that played it, actually evolving from episode to episode.
  And the support it gets from the other characters is great.
  It would have been interesting to see how they develop and manage a possible relationship between Jake and Diane, as the connection was there from the first episode, while they've started relatively late to explore it, it would have been grounds for serious humour and also drama in it, at least two or three seasons worth of it. Hell if they add in a bit of Jake's ex girlfriends, some of that "Arms and the girl" scent with new atractive women that hit on him, some Sarah episodic appearances, and stir all that with a bit of gealousy and uncertainty from Diane there would be plenty to write solely on that for a few season, add to that the terrorism and all the other subjects you got there a recipe for a succesfull and pretty long show.
  A show that wouldn't be boring even at the tenth season, off course if it's thought right.
  Too sum up, this show definetly needs to be revamped and if possible in exactly the same formula, or at least for the 4 main actors in it.

  It`s very disappointing the show didn`t got another try. hide « show »

  I just finished this season and i like it. It`s about a kid who always dreamed to become an agent but when he gets there he doesn`t like what he`s becoming especially the nano tech in him. Had alot of potential this program i didn`t know about recently 2 days ago and i saw all 16 episodes, So you know that i enjoyed watching it. I know it`s too late their wont be another seasons of the show but it was a fantastic till the last episode. If it were for me i would gave it, by now 5 more seasons. It worth watching and would have been 1 of the greatest show on tv...

  I can not believe that they ended this series. I thought that they would keep it airing for another season but I guess they didn't get much ratings. But in not a complete tragic because Sci-Fi Channel airs the episodes sometime. To anyone who into action, comedy and science fiction movies then I suggest you try looking at Jake 2.0. I sad that there won't be anymore episodes from this series but I'm glad I can still see the old episodes. And maybe they make a series off of this one if we are lucky. To Jake 2.0, you were great and I am glad I watched you.

  9.1 Superb

  Too bad it was cancelled. hide « show »

  Yes, this review is probably a little too late being that the show was cancelled in 2003 and it is now 2008. But, I just caught a couple of episodes on the Sci-fi channel today for the first time. It's a shame the show was cancelled, it looked like it had great potential. I thought it was pretty good and I liked the characters. Had I known about it back in '03, I surely would have watched it then. I'm also disappointed to find out that there was only one season. So, much for watching a bunch more episodes in reruns.

  9.1 Superb

  jake foley mega geek gains superpowers in a freak accident, uses those powers as a spy, its spiderman and the six million dollar man rolled into one made cool and brought into the 21stcentury. hide « show »

  From the first episode, the show proved that could do what most shows of its type had and still have failed to do bring a super powered being into a tv show add romance and mysteries and have him save the world on countless occassions and still make it exciting and intriguingly enjoyable without it being at all corny where new shows like bionic woman have failed and are now on the brink of being axed jake 2.0 shone through with class and a lil' technopathy. It was and still is a big tragedy that networks are to blind to see future potential of a show that would most likely have garnered a larger following if given more time than a mere 3 months on air. Watching chris gorham mature as jake was some thing we were only given a glimpse of and never had a chance to watch happen fully as well as the fully enjoyable subplot that was the love triangle brewing between jake, diane and sarah. Jake 2.0 might be gone from the screen but it is and will always fully remain with me as one of the few show that never jumped the shark so to speak and still got unfairly canned. til another show of its kind with that kind of presence and potential comes along i guess it back to my jake 2.0 archives to reminisce about the good times
