I think Nikita starts off really slow. And it's now suddenly become brilliant. Like how did that happen? And sometimes the lines are a bit really, really now oh come on really? But some of the recent episodes have been like the best television I've seen in a while. It's crazy. And okay, I'm never not gonna love watching women kick ass. I remember you saying once how it seemed unrealistic for women to beat up men, but Slayer works 'cause superstrength, and for me it's like if they have martial training, it's on. Because training teaches you how to use your opponent's strength and weight and size against them. Plus as a woman you have this edge of them underestimating you. And ngl, Maggie Q does the most amazing stunts I've ever seen. It's like she's dancing, then flipping, then suddenly she's flipping around your body and taking you down while breaking your leg and I have to rewind to watch it and I'm like I DON'T KNOW WHAT JUST HAPPENED BUT IT WAS AWESOME AND SHE SHOULD DO IT AGAIN 10 MORE TIMES.

*flaily*

Plus, this show is very much about the ladies. Nikita has a protege on the inside who's she's mentoring and their relationship is wonderful. All the love. All the trust. It's like they're sisters with really different hair who go around killing bad guys and being bamf spies.
