Superb
"Underappreciated"
A non-US point of view of some hot topics in this time: the war on terrorism, the borders control, the relationship between the United States and his "allied" countries, and the immigration issues post 9/11.

Great
"Absolutely fabulous"
24 at the Canadian/American border. However, no Kiefer, so that means, no yelling constantly (e.g. "GIVE ME THE PASSWORD" as he's pointing his gun and wincing his eyes, which he does a lot in the show!!) Worth checking out!!
