Warning: This comment is based only on the first season of the show, which is the only season available on DVD so far.
"She Spies" is a fun show to watch, but if you've seen one episode, you've pretty much seen them all. In the age of "Alias" and "24", the mission-of-the-week format seems anachronistic. While the three leads are beautiful, in great shape and actually believable as fighters, the action scenes are brief (they occupy no more than 2 or 3 minutes out of each episode's 43), and often shot in too-tight close-ups which suggest extensive stunt doubling. Of course the emphasis is more on comedy than action; yes the show has a self-aware sense of humor, yes it pokes fun at itself, yes it has some clever wordplay and yes it is sometimes funny, but after a while none of that surprises you anymore, and frankly sometimes the excess of talk begins to get tiresome. My favorite episode is "The Replacement", thanks to a super-sexy Brooke Burns who brings all the attitude that the rest of the show lacks. **1/2 out of 4 for the first season as a whole.
