Strike Back 2010

Dropped it a couple of episodes into S3. Feels a bit like "24" with two Jack Bauers. It was fun at first, and in a way still is, but the stories are becoming repetitive and uninventive. They just replace on bad guy with another from season to season and the main story becomes a copy of a copy. Muslims, terrorist, WMDs, yadda yadda yadda. And for an intelligence unit they do make stupid decisions at times. Which of course they need to do for the sake of the story.
S1 was promising but it made a 180 at the beginning of S2. Now it's basically just shooting and having sex. Way too much sex that does nothing for the plot or character developement but is just there. The rest is like a real life attempt of an ego-shooter where you never get hit and kill 2 guys with one bullet yourself. I don't feel challenged by the stories.
Ok, if you just want action but really nothing more in my opinion.
