Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

... View MoreThis is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
... View MoreThis film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
... View MoreHaving now seen all 13 episodes I will really miss this show as it has been a breath of fresh air compared to just about everything else currently on TV, such as the rather plodding Covert Affairs which despite its bigger budget is so much less entertaining than this spoof of the spy game.Chaos has an engaging cast, decent scripts and all played with a lightness of touch. As others have said the balance between humour and drama is handled very well. The episodes just fly by and for me are pure enjoyment. Thanks to all involved in its production. A nice Blu-ray release with lots of extras would be appreciated! A second series would be really nice too.
... View MoreThis series appeals to me. I like the very ordinary looking characters, but fully competent, down to earth.and common looking. Some are rather cute. No James Bond these! But, vicious and cunning just as well. And really courageous, and possessing great sense of humor. The Boss, Higgins is also great. The Office of Destructive Services (Is that sort of the Hurt Locker?) I also like the tough but vulnerable Deputy Director. I intend to follow the episodes, as much as I can, God willing. I like the ways the characters interact with one another, instead of just blurting out techmical, over burdensome lines that dare to test your knowledge of medicine, criminal science, etc., etc., ad nauseum However, the missions, circumstances, and events are real and plausible enough for me, without overtaxing my brains or memory. Yes. Virginia, THERE ARE Dopeys like me who still watch TV. And Please leave your science in the SCHOOL LABS Already! I don't care to know that a grain of the Kalahari Sand was found in the dead men's Jockey Shorts. But really, I don't find any of the episodes anyway near senile, and I know there was a good flow of events that don't bore me. Well, this is all for now folks.Redyoyo06 Panorama City, CA
... View MorePilot was really funny, and subsequent episodes were well-written, fast-paced, dramatic with appropriate humor, and left my Live Watch US participants wanting more. Acting was outstanding, and the chemistry between actors was definitely reminiscent of NCIS and The Mentalist. This show was a refreshing change on all fronts from the typical schedule offerings.Alas, the show, clearly appealing to both genders in the 18-54 (18-49 and 25-54 audience segments) audience segment, was scheduled on a night this audience tends to time-shift because they're not home watching TV and are out socializing. Nor was the show adequately promoted to both genders (the four primary actors have a largely female following); nor was it scheduled with similar shows that appeal to this audience segment.Online and CBS network promos were typical of the network, but other promotional strategies CBS does for new shows, TV talk show interviews and magazine & newspaper interviews, was lacking compared to other new CBS shows. Too bad...this was one show that shows promise of leading a change in network entertainment that cable networks are capturing and pulling audiences from the major networks. The female audience members were ignored with male-oriented promotion; they learned about the show through the male actors' fan sites.Entertaining show, cast with clear chemistry and appeal, good writing, and a fast-paced hour were wasted on Friday nights. Hopefully, when CBS airs the show this summer, it will get a more appropriate time slot and better promotion.
... View MoreMy wife and I loved Chaos! Please bring it back! There was no advertising about the show...it's no wonder it went down. It would have been more successful had there been promotion on other shows, in magazines, and even billboards! It was our favorite new show! The actors were fantastic, and there are no other shows about the CIA. Also, unique to the show were the characters and the plot lines we reviewed were fantastic! The show was clean, intense, humorous and addicting! Eric Close and Rodriguez were the stars, but all of them rock! What can we do to bring it back? Start a petition? Who can we call to put pressure on the studios and media? Please reconsider! San Diego
