AboutMarcia Studley Expertise I`m a true member of the tv generation! I grew up doing my homework while watching the classics of the 60`s and 70`s and today, they are still my favorites. I have a big library of tv and film reference books at my disposal, as well as a large video library. My memory is pretty darn good too, and when that fails, I can hit the books and/or videos, not to mention a few friends who are as devout tv gen members as I am. Please note that my expertise is with American tv only.

Question Hello, About 4 or 5 years ago there was a weekly program on tv (ABC I THINK)that dealt with homeland security,Here iswhat i can remember,it had a main character that was male (like ncis)it had a costaring female (like ncis)it had a black actor that was in charge of the technical stuff,and the last episode that i saw dealt with a young couple that were trying to make it to las vegas to get married before the boyfriend died from i believe radiation poisoning and they only made it a few yards past the roadblock and he died and the show ended.Can you please tell me the name of this show and it is not jag.
Answer HI ...
My brain took me to two places. First there was a series called The Agency that starred Gil Bellows (from Ally McBeal). After a year or so, he left and they brought in Beau Bridges, I believe in another character.
The other show I can't think of the title of. It was like a special operations bit --- maybe a cross between the old Mission: Impossible and the current The Unit, if you watch those. I recall the two leading characters were married. The team went all over the world trying to diffuse dangerous situations or check on security issues. I only watched a few episodes before I lost interest in it. Could that be the show you're thinking of?
If you think of anything else, let me know, and I'll keep trying to think of the name of this second show. I can't remember any of the stars either, unfortunately.
