I have to agree with your comments about the lead in Sleeper Cell: I found him boring, rather one dimentional and could find no way to relate with him at all. If you're going to throw him against someone as charismatic as the character portrayed by Oded Fehr, then he needs to have something to grip the mostly non-Islamic audience. Though I despised the terrorists motives and actions, I definitely found their characters much more intriguing, interesting and I wanted to know more about them, and why they felt as they did. They really need a more interesting or different actor to portray the 'good' guy - because he just kind of 'sits there' like a lump of clay or something, while everything happens around him. That said, I'm looking forward to this new season.
