Let's be realistic.

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Man....man oh man. I'd never heard of this show until it came out on DVD, but it sounded interesting in the reviews and comments I read. It sounded like a goofy Charlie's Angels parody with elements of the old Monkees TV show and Get Smart thrown in. However, I found that I could only make it through the first ten minutes of the second episode. It was just too painfully unfunny. I mean the women could have done the whole series in the nude and I think two episodes would have been my limit. I'm not familiar with the writers credited with this lump, but they give every impression of being old washed up showbiz hacks of the worst kind--I mean their idea of hipness were references to Tricky Dick Nixon and the old Gary Cooper movie "Shane." Did they think that anyone under 45 would get those gags? And even if they did, should the writers have had any reasonable expectation that said gags would actually be funny? (hint: the answer is no).But the dated nature of the humor wasn't even the real killer for me. The main thing that made it so painful was that the show was aiming so desperately and so often to be funny, but kept missing the mark upon each and every attempt. It was like the guy at the party who has no business telling jokes, but compulsively tells them anyway, ad nauseum. You know the kind of guy I mean--he tells jokes because he thinks that being funny will make people like him, so he tells one after the other to anyone who will listen. Trouble is, he got all the jokes out of an old joke book and has no natural sense of humor, so he just parrots out a bunch of dead-on-delivery gags, laughs at them himself because no one else will, and keeps going until his dullness clears the room. That's what this show did to me. Even with hot chicks, it cleared the room with its dullness. Freak. N. PAINFUL.

I think the show is hot and creative. It's not another "Charle's Angeles" knock off for sure. It makes me ill when I read about other people comparing this show to "CHARLE'S ANGELS," just because they are 3 female spies. GET OVER THAT FEMALE STERIO TYPE. The "Charle's Angels" movies focused on a fun fill comedy more than anything, the fighting scenes where mostly unrealistic and they pretty much hung for jump lines had body doubles to impress those without a realistic state of thinking or children. But She Spies fighting scenes are more realistic with hard martial arts training to actually learn how to defend themselves (or at least make it look that way). If you want to compare that to "Charles Angels" consider this, imagine the choreography in CA's choagraphy, doesn't that remind you of a popular children's TV show: "POWER RANGERS?" Anyway, A lot of the inventions/gadgets the the She Spies use are somewhat unrealistic or seem waaaay to cool to ever have but it's television. The idea of 3 career felonists becoming Government Agency spies (w/ limited privileges) who are serving their sentences in this way, is a bit functional, especially since they all happen to look like they just come from a Playboy photoshoot. I like the punch lines, the scripts are moderately written, dialoge is pretty predictable and the idea of foreshadowing into future episodes isn't clear at all. In my city, the station that the show is shown on isn't a very popular station as far as exclusive or "hit show" programs because it previously was own by WB but was sold out to someone else. So of course its the show doesn't get much attention as it would if it was on NBC, WB, FOX etc. If the show ever made it to one of those major networks with a respectable prime time time slot I do admit the producers would have to get a little more creative as far as characters, scrips and plots. But still if you want a show that entertains you for a little bit of comedy and action it's a premium choice show.

This show contains very um, how shall i say "old stuff" OK, three beautiful girls (Well i think that Cassie girl is ugly)who are crime fighters...sound familiar? think back into like 1975(i dunno) or more recently this last year. Hmmmm...ring a bell? Charlie's Angels! I mean how more unoriginal could you get?Also the actors suck. I mean its so cheesy could make a cheeseburger. In every episode (i've watched like 5) the same thing happens. The girls are there. The boss guy (doesn't he remind you of Charlie, from Charlie's Angels, only you can see this guy and he doesn't call em angels only she spies and gives Cassie weird looks.) tells them there's a new bad guy/girl. they save someone and catch the bad guy. its soo lame.If i were you, after SNL i would turn the TV off unless you're a vegetable and need to watch crap like "She Spies" For my rating i would give it a low 2/10, because i must admit, it is kinda entertaining if you're in the mood for ditzy girls who throw fake punches.

I know that a lot of people think that this is a show that was canceled by the network and is now in syndication, but that's not the case. Apparently, the plan all along was to debut on the network (and benefit from heavy network promotion--which it certainly received), and go on to be a syndicated program. Not a bad idea. I have to admit, it kind of got me hooked.It's a fairly entertaining and somewhat goofy show. And, while it's not nearly as good, in my opinion, as V.I.P., it's cut from the same cloth. It's still campy, good fun. Sometimes the self-mockery, as with VIP is the biggest highlight. While VIP tended to mainly mock Valerie Irons (Pamela Anderson), this show tends to go outside the box and mock the actual show. One line from a recent show:"We have She Spies action figures."-"there are She Spies action figures?"--"yeah, you wind 'em up and they dare you to find their time-slot."Don't knock it until you try it. It may take a couple of tries, but the show is actually getting better and I think you'll be entertained. Just remember, it's not meant to be Shakespeare. It's meant to be fun.
