Despite being set in the sub-moronic cartoon world of superheroes, this series managed to be fun and interesting.

Casting is well done. The actors have screen presence, a frequently ignored consideration. Unfortunately, the most appealing actor of the team, J. August Richards, is lost early on. The rest of team is good, with Ming-Na Wen's character the most engaging and compelling.

The plots are standard James Bond fare: highly skilled agents with high tech toys fighting world domination bad guys with high tech toys. The plots can get convoluted for those of us who never saw the movies of men in tights with juvenile names, but that doesn't detract from the fun too much.

Seven stars for a likable cast in saving the world action plots.
