Edit to add- I think I could be into Alphas. From the glimpse I saw anyway.

No, it's loosely based on that story but slightly different. That was called "La femme Nikita", based on the movie of the same name. Operations is now called Percy (why oh why?) and Nikita is out of Section (now called something else, can't remember) and trying to destroy it from the outside. Different actors, some names remain (Micheal, Nikita, Amanda, Birkhoff) and now apparently Section (or whatever it's called now -- oh yeah, Division!) is seen as a rogue entity helping prop up dictatorships in return for financial gain (not that different from Section really I guess, or the US Govt!) and Nikita is determined to bring it down with an operative/mole she has working inside Section. Division. Whatever.
Edit: Sorry, my bad. This IS the one with Shane West; seems the first season was split into two, over several months, but this is the actual second full season. The previous series, "La femme Nikita", had different actors, so most of the above is just useless waffle from me now, par for the course I guess... :rolleyes:
