The old series is awesome, one of truly great strong female character depictions on TV (in my opinion :D) .

I think I might like this one too , if we get more of that young girl Alex (who seems to be the real Nikita of this series) and less of stick-looking Nikita herself. Sorry, the actress really didn't click with me. I was so happy before I saw her on screen (she is half0Vietnamese which is great) , but in reality, she is more conventionally Western-looking than I would have even imagined her to be.
