The comments hera are mostly of the form "I won't watch that" rather than "It shouldn't be on". I took the attitude that if I ever want to know what the fuss is about, I'd better be in a position to watch it. So I turned on the vcr -- somewhat after it started, I admit. The part I watched seems to be a rather confused spy intrigue, where I regularly don't know what's going on enough to explain to my 13-year-old who's who even. There's very little attempt to place any of the events in historical context. From what I've seen, the show seems too incompetently put together to clearly exhibits an unconscionable bias. The one thing that I did seem to detect is a bias in favour of action instead of determining what action to take. That's so endemic in the American media culture that it's hardly specific to this program, though. Perhaps I should watch the rest, but I'm exhausted, and will go to bed instead. I found the whole thing boring. If there's a good reason for not broadcasting the show, it's that it's incompetently put together.
