Personally I love this comedy series. It has the touch of the "immigrant", broad sample of different countries in the Canadian culture. It uses very clean sense of humor, sarcastic by some, but not for the person who performs, thus giving a naive behaviour which turns into funny actions. Not sure why people don't like it. Perhaps because there's not swearing or killing or too much violence in the episodes. It's like the old series "Get smart" but with the different culture touch approach. I highly recommend this series. The characters are well specialized in each of their fields, but VERY WEAK ON any other field. Like the blonde who cannot shoot at someone 10 meters away from her.

stumbled upon this on netflix, it's based around a bumbling Canadian spy team that often succeeds because the villain is even more incompetent. it's pretty goofy, it's a comedy first so don't come to it looking for realism on how agencies really work. however being Canadian is probably required to fully get this show because there is a lot of local jokes in there or jokes that really appeal to Canadian nationalism (Canada secretly has the powerful army for instance) i don't intend to insult anybody but Americans for instance might not get the jokes about Canadian art counsel or CBC, so if your canuck i recommend, everybody else though you might find it meh

I started watching this show without any knowledge of what it was about. I based my decision to watch the first episode based on the title and the description on IMDb when I read the phrase "safe...ish" There are very few comedies out there that are clever, amusing, and have new material. This show has it all and the dialogue is written very well. There are times when I think a lot of the actors are just improvising and reacting to others comments which makes interactions more natural.I had a friend watch one of the episodes, and besides saying the lead female character was extremely attractive, he also thought the dialogue was entertaining and really grabs your attention.This show is fantastic in its direction, comedy style, and dry humor. There has not been one episode where I did not laugh out loud. It won't make you laugh for minutes, but it will make you laugh for a few seconds several times during an episode.I recommend this show 100% and give this show a 10 out of 10.

I feel upon the show a couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised. I don't watch a lot of Canadian television, to be perfectly honest so it was not on my radar but I read something about it, was home so checked it out. The show centres around a group of misfit hapless spies who work for the fictional National Intelligence Services Agency. Each week they try to solve some international crisis - and manage to save the day in spite of themselves. It reminded me of "Get Smart" in its broad, arched humour. The cast were with the exception of Remy Girard, completely unknown to me - and it didn't make any difference. They are great. Remy Girard is a household name in Quebec and it is great to see him in an English comedy. He is wonderful as the veteran on the force. The characters are really growing on me and I find the more I watch, the more I like it. I also really like all the web videos connected with the show. It is a lot of fun and that is great.
