Covert Affairs Season 4

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

The hit international spy drama returns this summer for its highly anticipated fourth season with Golden Globe-nominee Piper Perabo as Annie Walker. This season kicks off after Annie and her longtime best friend and blind CIA tech-op, Auggie (Christopher Gorham) finally acknowledging their romantic feelings for one another.

I think the show has moved a step up this season. Annie has matured, as most people do once they are four years into a job. The show is darker, however. Some of the comic relief has disappeared, and the witty banter has decreased.

The loss of the graphic laden, and somewhat cheesy, intro is a positive (though we miss the shots of Piper Perabo). However, the loss of the theme song is lamented. The song had little application (for those who could make out the words) to the early Annie. Now, as she moves into a mature, and more compromising, phase of her career, the song makes sense.

But the show still moves, and is even more engaging. Hopefully, the Annie character will not lose the charm, but simply temper it as appropriate. A great deal of her charm lies in her not diving down the rabbit hole as a person, but learning to compartmentalize. She needs her sister back to provide the bungie that pulls her back out of the hole as needed.

I loved the first few seasons. Amazing locations all over the world, interesting characters and plot lines. This season was like one big agency soap opera, all the drama involved agency people, most of whom you don’t even care about any more. Henry is the bad guy the whole season. Clearly they got a budget cut. I really missed interaction with spies from different nations like the Israeli spy, and the look at different cultures.

How much imagination does it take for the writers to give Annie short hair or wear a cap? Whether blond or dark it is like a waving flag when she is being pursued! This is one of the unbelievable parts of the script that make it hard to watch. That and the noisy heeled shoes when she is trying to be sneaky. Notice the men have sneakers or rubber or soft soles. AND she can run faster than any man in those heels! I would love for the writers to get real and make all plots of all these types of programs believable. The public is pretty sharp and would like the show just as well if it were more realistic.
