Reviews

  • “This short-lived - UPN only showed 12 episodes, there are a total of 16 - American sci-fi series is about Jake Foley, who gets superhuman abilities through an accident and is now employed by the National Security Agency. 'Jake 2.0' is difficult to bear. The story offers no surprises and leading actor Christopher Gorham is extremely annoying. Weak television. ” - Jens Schröder
  • “The story begins a bit slowly, but in retrospect, the information listed above, which can only be classified as unimportant, first gives the series a meaning. The mix of suspense, humor and story is very well balanced. But the eternal superhero stories are not for everyone. ” - Fabian Böhme

Awards

Keegan Connor Tracy was nominated for her acting performance at the 2005 Leo Awards in the Dramatic Series: Best Lead Performance by a Female category.
