Ms. Pucci KILLED THIS SHOW

Once the network or writing staff decided to go for the lighter side by adding the "Pucci" character whom originally was supposed to stay out of their business the entire series when into the garbage. The addition of the younger con woman was tolerable because she was almost an equal. The whole add an attractive woman for Chance to almost FLIRT with (Pucci) brought the show down IMO.

They went from an exclusive covert team to them being given CONTRACTS to sign for her company along with "Pucci" constantly asking stupid questions.

This is a standard move on these show especially with the FOX network

I totally agree with you....she was the worst addition to the cast. Every time she was on I cringed...the show went downhill with her...I really did like the first season alot

I agree with you to a point but let's face it, starting with the *beep* new titles and theme tune you could tell they had jumped the shark. Compounded by a weird decision not to complete the series 1 finale storyline and then the introduction of boring new characters etc etc. I really don't understand why Fox execs just can't sod off and die are they are toxic to anything they get their putrid little hands on.

Both new characters were abysmal. That's what happens when a network hijacks a show from a competent creator like Steinberg and gives it to a hack like Miller.

I agree with everything all of you have said so far. I can only add that the theme of the show, while overall being lighthearted and humorous, had a darker, serious side.
It was about 3 men trying to find redemption from their pasts.
Of course, that was all thrown out the window in the second season, and that's a real shame...
