I'm surprised it wasn't announced or anything, but as the title says, L/R (Licensed by Royalty) is on the International Channel (dubbed) on Mon 11ET/8PT.

Unfortunately I realized it was airing after it had done so, but I'll make sure to catch it next week. Anyways, for those who saw it, what are your opinions on the series.

Hate it. Cheap Bond knock off. There is no depth to the characters, and their only purpose is to look "cool" and have accents. Oh, wait, one is polite and one is rude. Thats about as deep as they get. Some might like the music though.

It's a pretty decent series for me though I wouldn't want to buy the actual DVDs for. Good series to watch only on TV and to kill some time.

Didn't like it, highly disapointing. and no character depth, City Hunter was much better and funnier.As a kick ass Spy thriller/Comedy, Najica couldv'e been a contender if it wasn't for those overdone panty shots. (talk about fan service..)

the opening is good but the rest of the music is soo fobby. usually i wouldn't mind but the lyrics make absolutely no sense.

the show sucks because they try to be so complicated. there are some good points in certain episodes but they always try some stupid complex directing scheme that never helps and some plotlines try to be complicated for no reason.

Eh, I saw the Pioneer(or Geneon) preview for L/R and I am not impressed; they make it out to be cool and it looks like a Bond knock-off that didn't really interest me. It was probably the emphasis on making them look cool that made me skip the rest of that preview.
