Sleeper Cell - An American Terror

[purbeast0]

Over the past few weeks I watched Season 1 on DVD. I must say this show is pretty damn good. It started off pretty slow but it quickly grew on me. I really like that main terrorist actor guy.

I am now on Season 2 and I honestly like Season 2 better than Season 1 so far. I've only watched 3 episodes but so far, Season 2 has a lot more stuff going on quicker and has some pretty brutal scenes so far.

It takes a lot more of a serious role on the terrorists than a show like 24 does. I wouldn't really compare it to 24 just because they are such different shows.

Has anyone else seen this show and do you like it?

Watched the first season also when it aired on Showtime. Then we cancelled our subscription as we quickly realized Showtime sucks.

It was a pretty good show though - interesting story and believable acting.

There have been a couple of threads on this, and yeah, I really like it. No pun intended, but I think it's one of those sleeper shows. Really awesome show that very few talk about for some reason.

LOL that's exactly what I told my girlfriend too ... that Sleeper Cell was a sleeper show. I hadn't heard about it until my friend asked me if I had seen it, and then like a day later my brother asked me about it too. So I then decided to track it down and check it out.

Definitely a great show.

I thought the show was great. I wasn't too crazy of how it ended in Season 1. Season 2 is more action-packed.

My roommate picked up season 1 because he saw a huge poster in downtown Phoenix for the show. It's a great show. Is season 2 out on DVD yet?

It's airing right now I believe. And as the poster above you said, it's definitely a lot more action packed, and I've only watched 3 episodes.

I didn't realize season 2 was over after watching the last episode. I checked the torrent sites the next night for the next episode and there was nothing. I hate how it leaves ya sorta hanging at the end. Great show though. I like how all the FBI meetings are in the strip clubs (season 2) or porn shops (season 1), lol.

Dammit! I just added HBO because Rome is back on, and now I have to add Showtime. My freakin Dish bill is gonna be huge now! :|

Are they still airing the first few shows or do I have to pick up where it is?
