I’m rewatching the show after finishing it several years ago and I tried both times to like Danielle.. but I just can’t. I’m currently on season 2, episode 16 when Annie and Danielle go on vacation and Danielle just seems so whiny. I think this episode just tipped me over because she’s upset by her husband’s indiscretions, but we find out she’s been talking to that old friend for 6 months. She’s very sweet and obviously loves Annie.. it just seems like she and her daughters are at the same maturity level.

I recently started rewatching Covert Affairs on Peacock after having watched it on a lesser known streaming service, and I just want to know if anyone else has come across there being 2 versions of the pilot episode?

The one streaming on Peacock has missing scenes when compared to the one streaming on this other service. For example, the office cheering when Annie recovered the data from the hotel. Or when she's getting a drink from the tap and Auggie says to invest in a bottle of Evian, and she says "it does taste a little gamey." Or the bathroom scene with Joan when she's working herself up to confront Arthur. Or the few seconds of Annie shaking her head after meeting Ethan. Or the scene where a tech hands Auggie braille case notes.

There's a bunch of other scenes that are missing or shortened. Anyone else notice this?

Just finished the series finale and to say I’m disappointed is an understatement. It felt like the whole series was a build up of Annie and Auggie. It was such a slow burn and then for it to turn out the way it did makes me hate the show. It was such a let down. It was amazing up until season 5 when they both decided to get into relationships that felt rushed and unnatural. One of the worst endings to a tv show I’ve ever watched and I feel like they just wasted so many seasons. What’s the point of building these two characters up for 4 seasons just for it to end like that? Auggie and Annie were meant to be together in the end, nothing can compare to the spark they had. Shame on the writers of season 5! The ending of season 4 seemed like they were getting back together then season 5 starts and it’s like they never even cared for each other. Absolutely no continuance of season 4. It was like they started the show all over again. I’ve never felt regret of watching a show before. I think this is a first.

Rewatched Suits, watched White Collar and Royal Pains now just starting Covert Affairs, fingers crossed.

I started last night and I'm enjoying it — but do the greenscreens get any more bearable? It's starting to grate on me a little.

I have just finished Season 3 but it seems Anne Walker just can't stop getting herself into trouble. She keeps going against sound advice and keeps landing into trouble but doesn't seem to learn a damn thing. Reminds me of Elizabeth Keen of Blacklist.

I’m probably the only one with this mindset, which is fine with me & it’s something I’ve never seen brought up before among fans but wanted to share. The only part that I like about season 5 is the Annie-Belenko dynamic. They were so much more entertaining together than watching her & Ryan. They were annoyed yet fascinated by one another, both had physical problems, he saved her twice (which he brought up), then there’s the whole ‘enemy of my enemy is my friend’ trope between them. Things were pretty complicated with them which made it all the more interesting. He was such a great antagonist too. Carefully planned events out from episode 1 onward without having to be onscreen for a number of episodes, ruthless yet charming. Cool, calm & collected exterior compared to Henry who was a show-off, angry & bitter. I hated the rest of season 5 regarding the other characters & always just look forward to re-watching this part of the season again. It really stands out imo.

So I've never seen this show and I'm watching it now. And the chick. The one about the show. I don't like her being a bad person in the beginning of season 3 !! She's playing this guy and I don't know how I feel that. And the blind guy is marrying some other chick that's not the cover affairs chick?

makes me sad.. sorry need a rant here cause McQuaid is the WORST character on the whole show i thought he was only gonna be like a short encounter but then he’s the whole seasonnn. i forced myself to watch the first half of the season because i love this show and couldn’t let go. then skipped to the finale cause i just couldn’t handle their relationship they had ZERO chemistry i’m so sad i didn’t want to give up on this show but YIKES

Been binge watching the show for a few weeks. I feel like season 4 was extremely predictable and was really tough to power through. The dynamics of all the change took away much of what made the show great for the first 3 seasons; namely, the interactions between Auggie and Annie. But Joan and Arthur’s situations also took them out quite a bit as well. The Henry storyline had potential, but it felt dragged out and overly complicated.

EDIT: >!OK, the payoff was pretty good. I was literally like, “Shoot his ass!” when they met in the alley!<

It looks like this subreddit hasn’t seen life in a while but I’m hoping that can change now that all the seasons are streaming on Peacock :)

I'm sure we've all been into other shows and of course life is lifing all over the place, but Covert Affairs will ALWAYS hold a special place in my comfort show heart. 🥰 Just me?

I'm currently watching S4E3 "Into The White" but after it goes off, I'm rolling it back to S1E1.

Who's up for a fresh discussion? 👀 let's open some windows and get some air circulating up in here! ☺

Characters seemed like total strangers in the season. As a result I didn’t real care what happened to them as it already felt like the characters were killed off. Someone in another post said management Changed which would explain it but what are your thoughts on season 5?

Does anyone know where I can watch all the seasons? I only found up to 3 T_T

I tried watching True Lies. I loved the movie, but the new series is terrible.

I am watching The Company You Keep on ABC. So far it seems to be pretty interesting and is maintaining my interest.

I believe this says \"Love\"

I can't keep it to myself any more. Annie is the absolute worst. She is selfish, stubborn, arrogant, and disrespectful. She's a terrible sister, a worse friend, an insubordinate employee. She has no loyalty or trust whatsoever - I really find myself actively rooting against her as I'm watching. In a few episodes I'll happily discuss this in detail in a spoiler filled thread, but for now...AAAARRRRGGHHHHH!!!

I am new to this show !!! and am wondering how much is filmed on location. It does seem like they use green screens for some of the "location" shots. Just curious if they film at any of the foreign locations.

Any preferably complete fanfictions with Jai/Annie, Jai/Auggie, or Auggie/Parker?

I could take Auggie with any love interest besides Annie or an OC

I recently started watching this show and want more content. I want more Jai.

Just watched through and stopped at the end of Season 4. I liked it so much better than finishing all 5 seasons. It just ends on a more hopeful note, and I didn't have to descend into the confused mess that is Season 5. I've always thought that Season 5, especially the latter half, seemed rushed and annoying. It felt like the writers were expecting another season but learned partway through of the cancellation, so they had to hurry up and write a series conclusion when they weren't ready to be finished.

i’m only a couple episodes in, and i’ve noticed a few things like signs that say “subway” even though it would be “metro” in dc, and street advertisement banners for .ca websites. is this something that’s this poorly done for the whole show?

I'm watching the series for the third time. Does anyone know if there's a place to watch/stream the special prequel episodes that were released near the beginnings of seasons 3 & 4? They might have been available only on the USA Network website at the time, but I'd like to find them if they're still around somewhere.

Here are my thoughts on Annie, Auggie, Campbells and the Wilcoxes.....

1. The series started out sort of lightweight campy/jokey (seasons 1-2 with the sister, AW never used a gun, she drove high speed chases in the little red VW) then it turned into a serious spy drama (seasons 3-5- JW gets blown up, AW uses a gun, smiles less, kills more). Was this story arc intentional? Or did the writers decided to change the feel of the series?

2. I am team Auggie. Auggie ( Christopher Gorham) was so sexy, swaggy. I did see why the female characters threw themselves at him. If you are a straight guy, or a lesbian, you wouldn't get it. When he was walking with a person and not using cane, he had a sexy walk, too.

3. Jai Wilcox (actor Sendhil Ramamurthy) was a gorgeous man. Scrumptious! He looked like a God. Especially when he smiled. His character was confusing, however. He was sometimes the good guy, and often times the bad guy. I loved it when he would come through for Angie (the good guy).

4. The entire Henry Wilcox story line SUCKED. It was effing AWFUL. It went on for way too long. And I know you're supposed to suspend belief when watching TV shows and movies, but this storyline stretched the limits of credibility of the show. Probably contributed to the viewership decline in S5. This story line did get better toward the end of S4. The Belenko storyline (s5) kinda sucked too, but not as bad as the Wilcox story line. Writers: limit the overarching story lines to 3 or 4 episodes max.

5. I whooped out loud when Eyal rescued Annie from the prison. That was perfect. I loved Eyal and Annie's relationship. Eyal (Oded Fehr) was sexy in a way. Very smooth! He seemed to show up when Annie was in a pinch. ETA: I loved whenever Eyal would call Annie "neshama." They shared a profound and deep affection.

6. Calder Michael's character annoyed me 2/3 of the time. I did like him 1/3 of the time when he revealed he was on Team Campbell/Walker/Anderson.

7. I liked Joan and Arthur's characters. The writers did make Arthur's character kind of wimpy in the last season. He turned into a yes man, his character ran flat. I liked Joan's character, especially when they showed multiple dimensions to her character.

8. Overall, I liked the Annie Walker character. However, she was annoying sometimes when she would not follow orders or reason. The actor, Piper Perabo, is a darn good actress. Pretty too. Also, pretty as a brunette (S4).

9. Annie will always love Auggie. When Annie screamed Auggie's name when searching for him after the bombing in S5, I felt that! That felt real, and raw. I didn't like how the writers had them break up however. Simply them telling each other they would move didn't feel believable. It seemed only like a writing/plot convenience.

10. Favorite scenes: when Eyal saved Annie from the prison; when the lady assassin could have killed Annie, s5, but instead cut off Annie's zip ties, and told her that they were on the same side, and may edit to add more favorite scenes later.

I’m watching Covert Affairs and good loooooord, is she irritating. They keep pretending like/expecting us to believe she’s good at her job but it honestly seems like she’s a pretty terrible spy. No discernible skills that would make her a good spy besides that she can speak a lot of languages. Constantly acts like she knows better than everyone else, even the people who are faaaaar more experienced than her. Falls in love with a villainous target???

I mean, likeeee… I’m not a fan as far as badass superwomen spies go. Give me Sidney Bristow any day.

Our girl went from witnessing Jai get blown up 😩 to being reassigned to a new division/new boss/new dynamics, and PLUNGED into a new op that sent her around the world and back all in what, 30 hours? 🤯 #GUSTO

BEST SHOW EVER!!!

Reccomend every1 to watch this show.

Lol but seriously tho, it would be one of my dreams come true to be a writer for this show. 📡📡📡📡📡📡📡 hey, I can dream! 🤷‍♀️

Still watching S3, but a few of my favorite scenes are when Annie escaped prison and saw who rescued her, and when that person embraced Auggie at the office. No spoilers, please.
