Special Unit 2 (2001–2002)
Fresh new series with a great sense of humor
30 January 2002
I found out about the show just a few months ago, and I love it. Despite what other comments have stated, it is not Men in Black the live action series, as the subjects are links, not aliens. It is a great idea for a show that the missing links have been identified and they are on the rampage in Chicago. The chemistry is great between the leads, and anything involving Carl the gnome and his theft habits is hilarious. The sense of humor is the defining characteristic of the show, and is like nothing a sci-fi addict like me had ever seen. It is fresh and original, and the clever scripting is perfect for the show. The best episodes are the ones where the leads are under the influence of a link, and they are not themselves. It shows what great actors the producers chose for the series, as they demonstrate their amazing versatility. The effects are great, and the production is much better than some of the series on tv. Overall, this this show is a gem and should not be missed by any dedicated sci-fi fan.
