During a shootout in a secret government lab, National Security Agency computer technician Jake Foley is caught in the crossfire and is accidentally injected with nanites, which give him superhuman powers. Jake becomes a field agent for the NSA doing missions and using his "powers".

Its not that good, but its better than any reality show.

what sci-fi shows?

sorry to break it to Mick_et but Jake 2.0 got axed last December in the US. im surprised 10 are even showing it. there seems to be a trend of axing good shows of late

drama/crime shows are more popular over sci-fi shows with the general population. that's why they get axed and the title has nothing to do with the quality of the show.

ahah i watched Jake 2.0 last week cos i had nothing else to do and i was like omggggggggg i love nerds so much :p he's such a cutie that jake! and how he was like, trying to show the girl that he's more than just a techie or whatever. very cute.

i probably wouldn't watch it every week though, considering the timeslot.

i was wondering, do you guys remember that show about this fat guy who was accidently pushed in front of a train? and then these guys saved his brain and put it in the body of this superfit thing (like a created body), and then the guy keeps tying to return to his wife and stuff?

the main character now acts on that shows that comes on after CSI Miama, about the people that go missing and how their department tris to find them or something...

Because TV Stations buy the rights to shows in Blocks, if a network wants to get a real popular show then they have to buy that block and then get 3 other shows with it. They dont just buy the rights to 1 show each seperately.

So it makes sense for TEN to air shows that are going to get axed, financially... i mean why have the rights to a show and then not air it?
