A man in a suit helps people in need while beating the living daylights out of a lot of bad guys. His helpers include a computer-wiz millionaire with a limp, an artificial intelligence that likes to use the phone, a crooked cop who turns good, a female assassin who can tie me up any time she likes and there's even a dog. This series deserved to be far bigger than it was.

If you only ever saw the promo spots on commercial breaks of another show - you would likely conclude this is a terrible show. Far from it. Poorly promoted, amazing show! One of my all-time favorites now.
